4images and SQL Help

[kipo]

Hi im having a few problems with installing 4images, i have found a good webserver pack from http://www.devside.net/server/webdeveloper

I'm a total noob with Apache and SQl setup but im able to follow guides. I have made a sql database  but cant get the 4images installer to work, i just get the error "An unexpected error occured. Please try again later."

I'm pretty sure i've filled out the form correctly but then again i cant be sure

Database server hostname "Localhost"
Database name                "Brunswick"
Database username          "root"
Database password           "pass"
 Prefix for tables in database  "4images_"

Admin username                 "user"
Admin password                 "pass"
Admin password (Confirm)    "pass"

Please could someone send me a noobie guide? or help in anyway

Database server hostname "Localhost"
Database name                "Brunswick"
Database username          "root"
Database password           "pass"
 Prefix for tables in database  "4images_"

please remember that these entry's are case sensitive...

try to use "localhost"...

Database server hostname "Localhost"
Database name                "Brunswick"
Database username          "root"
Database password           "pass"
Prefix for tables in database  "4images_"

wrong...

it has to be something like:
Database server hostname "localhost"
Database name                "xxx_Brunswick"
Database username          "xxx_root"
Database password           "pass"
Prefix for tables in database  "4images_"

"xxx" is normali the username you use to login into your webserver

for example, my site is "zapomnime.com" and my username for he webserver is "zapomni", so when i make a database called "4images" i will be automatically "zapomni_4images"

understand?
