I’ve been having trouble with the version Fantastico uses, and one of the devs on the phpBB support forums suggested I install it myself. Unfortunately I don’t know all the things the Install program needs to know:
The Database Type – the database you will be using.
The Database server hostname or DSN – the address of the database server.
The Database server port – the port of the database server (most of the time this is not needed).
The Database name – the name of the database on the server.
The Database username and Database password – the login data to access the database.
I know the type is SQL, and I know the database name, username and password, but I don’t know the server name or port.
TIA,
Devonie

Answer #1
NM. A friend helped me discover the problem. For some reason the username I’d set up wasn’t being recognized by the server. I erased the username and set up a new one, and now it works fine!
