New User doing a New Install

[steven]

I changed connect.php to what the instruction indicate to be correct values.
After uploading EE I run setup.php and I get the following output.

SCROLL DOWN THE PAGE UNTIL YOU SEE A CONFIRMATION BOX
Dumping 1.22 SQL data

MySQL version:4.0.18

DATABASES AVAILABLE:

INSERTING CORE EE DATA:

Access denied for user: 'nobody@sardinia.inside.globat.com' (Using password: NO)
ERROR IN QUERY:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `ee_camera`


Any idea as to what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks
steve

If the connect data is indeed correct, the the problem is you do not have privileges to drop tables. Normally you'd need privileges to:

SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, INDEX, ALTER, LOCK TABLES

If server admin refuses to give you DELETE privileges (can't see why not), you should delete all DELETE statements from install script.

But to me it seems to more like log in error, double check you login info in connect.php.

BTW, nowadays it is better to install http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=29266

Thanks Pekka.

I'll grab the 1.5 Rel 5 beta and double check the log in and try again.

Thanks again.
