    I've did a search on this and tried the suggestions that were given but I still cant figure it out.

    I'm trying to install the trial version and after I'm done step 2 I get the following message:

    Cannot connect to mysql (Access denied for user: 'mike@localhost' (Using password: YES))

    MySQL Host: localhost
    MySQL Database: amember
    MySQL Username: mike
    MySQL Password: *******
    MySQL Tables Prefix: mmcleod_

    I've gone into "MySQL Databases" and have created a database called amember and made an account called "mike" and granted all permission for it for the amember database. It tells me that the the database name will be prefixed with "mmcleod_" which is what I have under "MySQL Tables Prefix:" Is there anything that I'm doing wrong?

    Thanks

    You should enter:

    MySQL Host: localhost
    MySQL Database: mmcleod_amember
    MySQL Username: mmcleod_mike
    MySQL Password: *******
    MySQL Tables Prefix: amember_

    Make difference: "tables prefix" and "database name prefix"!

    Thanks, it works now. I'm completely new to setting up scripts like this so I was lost. I tried working it out on my own last night but everything I tried failed so I decided to ask.
