Hi all and Happy Holidays,

I'm trying to set up my first zenphoto experience and have ran into a stump that I cant get out of the ground.

My setup has green check marks on everything but I have an error at the bottom. No submit button is present.

This is the error Im getting;

DB Error, could not list tables MySQL Error: Access denied for user: '****@localhost' to database '***********_com_photos'

The identity and database name are blanked out by asterik by myself. What does this error mean? What do I have to do to fix it?

Thank you

You need to download and install the nightly build. There is a problem with the special characters in your database name.

I tried the nightly install and I still get the same error posted above but, it does give me the option to use the GO button.

When i hit the GO button i get this error now:

Zenphoto Error
MySQL Query ( SELECT `name`, `value` FROM `zp_options` ) Failed. Error: Access denied for user: '****@localhost' to database '***************_com_photos'
It looks like your zenphoto tables haven't been created. You may need to run the setup script.

The setup script then gives me the same error as my first post.

Thanks for the help.

You can try creating a database whose name has no characters other than alpha and numeric ones.

can you email me privately at: stephen sbillard <dot> org. I have a setup.php with some extra checks that might shed some light.

email sent. Thanks for the help.

I have the same problem. There are underscores and - tokens in my database name. I can't alter these because my website is on a webhost. I tried the last nightly build (zenphoto-2008-01-10) but it doesn't work.

Can you cut and paste the setup report? The problem with tokens in the name has been fixed, so this must be something else.

Hmm, strange,
i could install in now. Probably my webhost changed some settings. I still have a problem with apache2, but I have posted that problem in an other thread.

Thank you for your help.
