Hello,

i try to install Exponential-4.0.0beta1 on my php 5 server.

I upload my files and i have created my database. When i launch the setup, i choose the language and i write my database connection settings.

The setup show me this error:
The selected user has not got access to any databases. Change user or create a database for the user.

But if i access with phpmyadmin (with the same user), i see my database.

I have also tried with root user , it doesn't work.

Whats the problem?

Thanks for help and sorry for my bad english

Hey m8

i got the same problems...

ran the installation and it stopped when i filled out the information for the database connection...

i am currently running PHP Version 4.4.7 and mysql 5.0 on my home computer

i gave the installation the root access, but no result and i created a new database for root and granted full access

i created a new user for the database server (global) and with full access and gave the installation the connection information, but it keeps saying:

"The database would not accept the connection, please review your settings and try again. "

so i figured maybe the windows firewall is blocking so i gave it tcp access (manually), but no result...

so here i am ;) anyone got any tips?

or maybe someone can tell me which file i can hack so i can do a work-around in the .php file myself.....

Most likely format of mysql user password is wrong.

Mysql changed tha hash function it uses to store internally passwords. PHP 4 connect function uses the old hash metod. Look for old_password in mysql docs or php.net
