Did you upload your files to the /public_html/ directory?

Did you upload your files to the /public_html/ directory?

I think he's fixed that problem, because I can see his index.php file.

now it says i have used all mysql databases?

Login to cPanel, and click on MySQL Databases, there it'll show you how many databases you have.

ok everything is fine but while am running my installer what is the mysql database called? like on ulmb is mysql but not on here :S

 

[TechAsh]

The database name will be your cPanel username followed by a underscore then whatever you chose as the name. eg.

example_testdb

i have that sorted out i meant it says this on my installer
Hostname
This is usually localhost
but i tryed local host didnt work and i tryed mysql and that didnt work :dunno:

 

[TechAsh]

The host name is "localhost" (No space & without the quotes)

OK I HAVE ALMOST GOT IT DONE THANKS ALL JUST ONE PROBLEM LEFT :eek4:
Write Config...
Config written.
Attempting DB connection
Connection Successful.
Writing Main MySQL data.
QUERY ERROR: No database selected
Query was CREATE TABLE `announcements` ( `a_text` text NOT NULL, `a_time` int(11) NOT NULL default '0') ENGINE=MyISAM ;

SERSIOLY if you help i will kiss your pixels :eek4:

 

[TechAsh]

That error suggests that it couldn't find the database you told it to use. Check that the database name is correct.

 

[owner mat]

its up but i noticed the cron panel only has 2 ? ill have to live with that :S

 

[TechAsh]

So can this be closed now?
