    Unhappy My MySQL db administrator username?

    Hi, I'm new to x10.

    I'm installing a PHP application and the configuration routine is asking me for the "MySQL Database Administrator username" and password and, so far, nothing I enter is accepted.

    I know my "hosting" username/password and my "forums" username/password but the install routine does not accept either set of logins.

    What should I be entering here:
    "The username and password of a database administrator who can create database tables and users and who can write to the database is necessary in order to set up the Sugar database.
    Database Administrator Username: ____
    Database Admin Password: ____
    My database name is like "HostingUsername_DatabaseName"

    I also created a user which has the format of "HostingUsername_MyUserName". I tried that with the assigned password and it doesn't allow me in.

    Any ideas?
    Thank you in advance!

    Have you added that user to your database?

    ADD that user to your database with necessary permissions.

    Re: My MySQL db administrator username?

    Yes, I added a user with ALL permissions.

    The screens don't say for sure, but after adding one user I think that now there is an administrator user and a second user. I have tried to log in as both the administrator (using my x10 hosting logins) and as the second user. No success so far :-(


    Edit:
    SOLVED.

    The host name was wrong.

    It should have been 'localhost' but the install script automatically chose 'myDomain.x10hosting.com' so I just accepted that it must be right.
