    Hey guys,
    New to the board so I hope I’m doing this correctly, I search and read a number of post but I can’t seem to get my installation going.

    I’ve uploaded everything to http://ouralbum.isayisay.com/wordpress/

    but when I run the installation on
    http://ouralbum.isayisay.com/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php

    I get the “Error establishing a database connection”. I’ve tripled checked that I have the db_name, login and password correct.

    One thing I’m not sure is whether my php is setup correctly. My db_name is set to myalbum.isayisay.com, but the weird thing when I log in it says I don’t have permission to create databases, so I’m not sure if that’s a problem or not.

    Any information you guys can provide is greatly appreciated!!

    That sounds like either a PHP or MySQL mis-configuration. Are you trying to setup locally on a PC or a Mac?

    If it’s a Mac, this may help: http://maczealots.com/tutorials/wordpress/

    Hi all.

    I think I am having the same problems.

    I got everything up to the server. I ran the http://www.echo9er.net/blog/wp-admin/install.php, and got all the way through the password.

    When I logged on, I got some error messages.

    I closed everything, opened my browser and pointed to http://www.echo9er.net/blog/wp-admin, logged on with the username and password sent via email and was faced with the following errors:

    Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/echoern/public_html/blog/wp-config.php:23) in /home/echoern/public_html/blog/wp-includes/pluggable-functions.php on line 109

    So, at this point, any help is appreciated.

    Here is some information that you may need.

    Browser: Firefox (Home); IE 6.0 (Work)
    Hosting service: Total Choice Hosting

    Thanks again. I look forward to your expertise.

    A simple search of the forums or Codex would have been appreciated. Please search before posting next time.
