[SOLVED] Joomla mysql setup

[izver]

Hi!

 

I have created a database and linked an account to it. I set the host name to localhost. However I keep getting an error.

Could not connect to the database. Connector returned number: 2

 

The username izver_izver@localhost, or just izver_izver

 

Host name localhost or 65.19.143.2:3306, doesn't work.

 

Basic Settings

 

Database Type *

This is probably "MySQLi"

Host Name *

This is usually "localhost"

Username *

Either something as "root" or a username given by the host

Password

For site security using a password for the mysql account is mandatory

Database Name *

Some hosts allow only a certain DB name per site. Use table prefix in this case for distinct Joomla! sites.

Table Prefix *

Choose a table prefix or use the randomly generated. Ideally, three or four characters long, contain only alphanumeric characters, and MUST end in an underscore.

Old Database Process *

BackupRemove

Any existing backup tables from former Joomla! installations will be replaced

 

Nvm, I solved it. The user didn't have permissions for database. I used the wizard and it worked.
