izver Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
