I have been using Mantis for a couple of years now, but I have never had to install it before.
Now, I am trying to install the Mantis database on my own website and I'm having trouble configuring the database (MySQL).
Details regarding my available systems:
MySQL Version: 5.0.91
PHP Version: 5.2.12
I am given the following when trying to install:
Please advice on how to overcome this problem and complete my installation...Setting Database Hostname GOOD
Setting Database Type GOOD
Checking PHP support for database type GOOD
Setting Database Username GOOD
Setting Database Password POSSIBLE PROBLEM
database password is blank
Setting Database Name GOOD
Setting Admin Username GOOD
Setting Admin Password GOOD
Attempting to connect to database as admin BAD
Does administrative user have access to the database? ( Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) )
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Sevastian
