2.2.1 Install help

I setup a new db and user. When I click install I get the following error. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

SQLSTATE[HY000] [1045] Access denied for user ' waste'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

    Welcome to the community.

    I'd suggest you check the user credentials for your DB, and perhaps add another user to double check.

  • @whu606
    Tried that and even creating another db. I know that the localhost and the way I am using the usernames should work because I have another forum that is running fine on another db.

  • @whu606 Sorry forgot to say the other forum that I am using is SMF.

  • I figured this out thanks.
