On the install.php page, I filled in my details as follows:

Username: Rachel
Password: __________
MySQL host: localhost
MySQL: rachel_rachel 
MySQL: rachel_coppermine
MySQL Password: __________
MySQL table prefix: cpg131_
(default value is OK; do not use dots!) 

ImageMagick path: /usr/bin/

And yet when I click the button I get the error message "mySQL Error: Table 'rachel_coppermine.cpg131_users' doesn't exist".

I'm new to all this mySQL stuff and I don't understand a single thing about it... Can someone tell me what I can do to fix the error? I've been at it for ages and I can't figure it out and it's frustrating :(

Thanks.

you can not enter made-up data in those fields, you have to make sure you actually have a database called "rachel_coppermine". Obviously you don't have such a database. Ask your webhost wether you have mySQL at all (it's a minimum requirememt to have mySQL to get Coppermine installed) and what you mySQL data is.

I do have mySQL, I used it to set up Movable Type.

And I do have a database called rachel_coppermine.

In my control panel, it says


MySQL Account Maintenance

 
Databases: rachel_coppermine  

rachel_mt    


The second one is the one I use for MT, and the first one is the one I attempted to use to fill in the form on the install.php page, however there is still an error that says "mySQL could not locate a database called 'rachel_coppermine' please check the value entered for this"

Joachim Müller

does the user you specified have permissions to access the db in question?
