Title: Installation help!
Post by: bugmenotbugmenot on November 30, 2008, 06:46:52 PM
Our clan downloaded TP today, when installing we put it in the /Forums/ directory, however, where should the database name and password be entered, I figure if it had to have its own database it would be in the install_tb.php file, which would be very simple, do we integrate it onto the forums?


Edit:

When we go to the tp_install.php file on the forums, we see multiple PHP errors referring to the DB.

Such as:

Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061) in D:\Hosting\3127606\html\forums\tp_install.php on line 17

However, I don't see how it could query the database since there isn't a place to put one.

TinyPortal is not a stand alone application. It is a mod for the SMF forum.
