Ian Dees	Thursday 01 June 2006 6:48:32 am Hi Everyone, I'm trying to do a test install of ezP here and whenever I try to enter a user for my MySQL database, instead of going forward to the next step it goes back to the "choose the database: mysql or postgres" step without any error messages. Can anyone suggest a way to diagnose what is going wrong here? Thanks.

You can do it in the settings/site.ini file, search for DebugOutput and set is as enabled. Personal website -> http://serwatka.net Blog (about eZ Publish) -> http://serwatka.net/blog
