Hi Everyone
Just cant figure this out - am not technical... but... have gone into cpanel, gone to mysql, created database, added user, added permission, etc. Then I go to Step 3, fill in the form and get:

1045: Access denied for user 'nameofdb'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

Please please help, going crazy!
thank you

The usual reason for this is you are entering the database information wrong. Make sure you have the complete database name and user name - many hosts append your account name to the beginning of it. Make sure you are entering the password correctly.

If you still have problems, check with your hosting company and make sure the path (localhost) is correct. Some require using an ip address, etc.
