attempting to re-install

[geass]

I decided to re-install from scratch. I've deleted the old database and uploaded the files for the newest package (1.7.6).
I also only have config.new.php because I've deleted the old config.php.

Pointing to install.php on my browser, I try to set everything up again, but come across this message:
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'geasses_hobby'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in /home/geasses/public_html/hobby/includes/db_mysql.php on line 39

An unexpected error occured. Please try again later.

Note that I altered my 4images folder to a different name: hobby.

hi,

it's something wrong with your MySQL entries at install.
maybe password wrong, database, user..

check that..

I'm having the same problem...

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in C:\xampplite\htdocs\includes\db_mysql.php on line 39

An unexpected error occured. Please try again later.

I can't figure it out.

The username/password you use for mysql is not correct.

user: "root"
pass: none

Can someone please direct me to a link were I can study how to solve this problem ? I mean, I'm quite new to php & mysql and I have a lot to learn...

Edit:

I'm using xampplite, all setings default and seems to work until the install gives me the eror mentioned above.

"pass: none" means you should leave password field empty, don't enter word "none"

Well, it was a bit hard untill I figured out all the things. Now I'm working on the itnegration of 4images with phpbb3 and it gives me headakes

Thanks for help!
