Z2Dave Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 I know this has been covered somewhere else but I can't find it despite spending hours looking. When I create a new database (using Jersey Joe's tutorial on a thumbdrive) and then start to install cc3 I get to page 3 and then when I try to go to page 4 the following error shows:- MySQL Error Occured 1045: Access denied for user '*****_user'@'localhost' (using password: YES) Is there anyone that could help me through this with full instructions please.

bsmither Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 If you know the user/pass is correct, then make sure you actually have a MySQL user with those credentials installed in the database manager. It could also be the case that the step that processes the info on page three requires access to the database manager as root. Were you entering the user/pass of the expected CubeCart database user instead of the database manager user/pass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z2Dave Posted February 16, 2010 Author Share Posted February 16, 2010 Thanks for reply. It's more simple than that. I have created a database using EasyPHP/PHPAdmin with a name and password and that's it. From Jersey Joe he say:- "1) create the database 2) add a user name / password for that database 3) actually ADD THE USER to that database. The form for doing that is simply not clear about the need to do that". The article that I can't find explains how to do item 3 in EasyPHP/PHPAdmin. That's the information I desperately need. Sorry if I wasn't clear first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Hi I have used this tut when i was a beginner and i think it may help you ;-) Added to say, this one may also be helpful for the installation via cpanel. Cheers Andrea :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z2Dave Posted February 16, 2010 Author Share Posted February 16, 2010 Many thanks BSM and Andrea. Managed to understand it at last and cc now working. It was the need to enter the user in the database that wasn't very clear. Cheers again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
