I have been trying to install Typo3 for about a week now and can not get past setting up the databse connection in the Install Tool.
Enviroment: Windows Server 2003 IIS 6 mySQL Server version: 5.0.45-community-nt; Protocol version 10; Connnection: localhost via TCP/IP; TCP port 3306 PHP 4.3.10 The problem: When I try and enter the Username, Password and Host using the install tool it returns an error saying that the database is not available. I have checked mySQL and all is working/running, I have also run the test for PHP (PHPINFO) and this returns all the info correctly. I have set the permissions on the whole of the directory for the moment so that IIS_WPG, IUSR_ASIIT01 and USERS all have modify permissions. Connections to mySQL have been tested using the root and typo3 accounts and these work ok; RESULT: mysqlshow -h localhost -u typo3 -p*!*!*!*! typo3 Database: typo3 +--------+ | Tables | +--------+ +--------+ As you can see above I have created an empty database called 'typo3' in mysql and have given the 'typo3' account full permissions to this. The only time that I have been able to get past this point was when I setup the ANONYMOUS account in mySQL. When this was active I could get to STEP 2 and select a database. I could not get any further as the ANONYMOUS account did not have privilages to the database, but I wanted to use this as a test to make sure that mySQL and PHP were all working correctly and that the install tool could actually communicate with mySQL etc. I'm not a developer, but it seems as if the install tool is not passing the username and password across when it tries to connect to mySQL. Any advice or pointers as to where I have gone wrong would be very much appreciated. Thanks Rob. This message (including any attachments) is confidential and may be legally privileged.
