Hi,

when i go through the setup for vanilla i get this error!

SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user 'HTMLfrek'@'int.web2.vital.x10hosting.com' (using password: YES)

here is what is typed in all boxes except the password box!

Database Host: localhost
Database Name: dbname
Database User: HTMLfrek
Database Password: (my x10 hosting password)
Application Title: Vanilla 2
Admin Email:
Admin Username: HTMLfreak
Admin Password: (not telling)
Confirm Password: (not telling)

What have i done wrong here, i know that if i leave Database Password blank that the error message changes a little bit from (using password: YES) to (using password: NO)

Head to the MySQL Database Wizard in cpanel and create a new database and user from there - you don't currently have any databases created, nor are there any database users.

Once you've made the database and user, replace Database Name, Database User, and Database password with the newly created database name, the database user, and the password you gave to that database user.
