MySQL Connect failure:

    DMANews was able to link to the MySQL server using the configuration information that you supplied, but was unable to connect to the MySQL database named below:

Database name: ksolno_nytt

    This could due to one of the following reasons:
  • The database named "ksolno_nytt" does not exist
  • Configuration information for database name incorrect

    On the up side, at least we know the following information is correct:
  • Database Host "localhost" [Correct]
  • Database User "ksolno_damun" [Correct]
  • Database Password "opus349" [Correct]

Possible Solution (1)
  1. Check that the MySQL server is functioning correctly.
Possible Solution (2)
  1. Delete the configuration file "dma_news_config.php".
  2. Double check all MySQL configuration information and ensure that either i) an empty database is already prepared into which the DMANews installation script can install all the necessary tables and data, or ii) a previously installed and correctly configured database is present, in which case you need to simply regenerate and replace the configuration file "dma_news_config.php" to account for changes in your MySQL connection configuration.
  3. Open a browser and load the admin control panel "dma_news_admin.php" to reinitiate the installation proceedure.
