Hi, I have loaded abyss webserver, php and mysql. I did the config for php in the cgi area.
I have mysql running with a green light and abyss running.
I have copied the e107 files into the htdocs folder in aybss and go to browse the website to install e107.
It asks for language then passes on php version, mysql version and file perms.
Next page is my mysql server which I assume stays localhost (?) and mysql username and password. mysql database with tick to create and lastly table prefix which is e107_
I add my username and password from mysql and add a database, click to go to next install page and get "e107 was unable to establish a connection to mysql using the information you entered. Please return to the last page and ensure the info is correct"
Could someone give me a clue as to what I'm doing wrong?

It's obvious that your username and/or password is incorrect.
Do you have phpMyAdmin installed?
If you do, then the username and password that's in your config.inc.php is the one you use for e107.

Thankyou VERY much for your response.
I know have it running thatnks to you.
One more question if I may: Now I have a cpl notices at the top of my pages: undefined index & undefined Query_String. I assume from a previuos bad install on my part.
Is there anyway to rectify this, I don't want to just turn them off because it seems to give me problems with changing themes.
I am willing to do a complete full install of everything if someone could tell me what file to delete.
Thanks again Moxxnixx, your site is what I aspire to.

This one is easy.
Go into your class2.php and look for this:
Code:
$HELP_DIRECTORY = "e107_docs/help/";

Just add this on the next line:
Code:
error_reporting (E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE);

That'll get rid of the notices.

Cheers,

If you want to do a re-install, then just delete the database in MySQL and re-run install.php.
