Mysql error

Ok, tried that, with and without the quotes on the first on root@localhost. Still does the same thing with the same error messages

You have your config file using eq as the user name? Change it to root. Or I guess you could grant privileges to the eq user...

Access denied for user 'eq'@'localhost' (using password: YES)


... oh yeah, be careful who you show that password too

no, my user name isnt eq, its root. i even used the find function to see where every reference to eq was, and it isnt in any of the places that would cause an error, as far as i can tell.

The password is unique and will be changed. password is the least of my worries.

This is the place I was talking about, in the config file

<!-- Database configuration, replaces db.ini.  Defaults shown -->
	<database>
		<host>localhost</host>
		<port>3306</port>
		<username>root</username>
		<password>******</password>
		<db>peq</db>

Ok, I see you have that set right... it's obvious a database connection... did you try a reboot after installing mysql? I know... sorry, im an IT guy

Just go over all the database stuff again, you must have missed a step.

I just noticed that you also looked for help in the minilogin forum... you won't be able to easily switch between the two login types... you need to set it up one way or the other.

Someone moved my post to the mini-login forum. I dont know why.

Also, I was trying to set it up on a LAN at first, but after i un-installed and re-installed everything, I decided to do the public servers first, like the guide said to do. Also, ive re-installed Mysql a few times, trying different versions because ive read a few posts in these forums about downgrading seeming to help some people. Ive tried a few different versions, and install all of them while going over the guide. And yes, I always restart after I install or un-install everything to clean out memory.
