Am New To Th Forum So If Am Posting In The Wrong Section Plz  Do Tell

Ok Am Installing My SMF With This Host hxxp:000webhost.com [nonactive] And Its Asking For This Not The Host The Installer



These are the settings to use for your MySQL server. If you don't know the values, you should ask your host what they are.

MySQL server name:   

This is nearly always localhost - so if you don't know, try localhost.

MySQL username:   

Fill in the username you need to connect to your MySQL database here.
If you don't know what it is, try the username of your ftp account, most of the time they are the same.

MySQL password:   

Here, put the password you need to connect to your MySQL database.
If you don't know this, you should try the password to your ftp account.

MySQL database name:   

Fill in the name of the database you want to use for SMF to store its data in.
If this database does not exist, this installer will try to create it.

MySQL table prefix:   

The prefix for every table in the database. Do not install two forums with the same prefix!
This value allows for multiple installations in one database.




This Comes Up When I Put My Info

Cannot connect to the MySQL database server with the supplied data.

If you are not sure about what to type in, please contact your host.
Access denied for user 'a2296672_root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)



If Need I Have TV(Team Viewer) :(

Are you running SMF 2.0 or 1.1.x?

This appears to be a hosting problem. Have you attempted to contact them?

It's definitely some incorrect information inputted there for the database. You may PM me your webhost control panel and forum details. If you want this to be done remotely to see how it works as well, you may IM me.

I am having a simular problem  using the same info as my other forums I still can't get it to enterface with the sql just refreshes the screen  and dont see any errors.  anywhere just a page back to what it was before I added the info .

NVM I found that If I installed version 1.1.4 I could install it fine  an then upgrade to 1.1.6 with no problems so itis looking more like a problem with the installers on 1.1.6 IMHO.  I ahve mine fixed now  with out any help but wanted to pass oalong the way I fixed this problem incase anyone else is having it.
