I have been using UBB Classic for almost 10 years now. I have a "gold" support plan.
I am having difficulty with the Threads installation.
I have installed MySQL. PHP is already on the server as we use it for UBBClassic. (According to the info.php file, MySQL is enabled.)
I can login to the MySQL command prompt. I have created a database named "ubbthreads", a user named "ubbserver", and assigned a password to the user.
In Step 2, the install utility asks for MySQl server info. Currently, the fields are populated as follows...
Database Server: localhost
Database Name: ubbthreads
Database User: ubbserver
Database Password: *******
Tablename prefix: ubbt_
When I click on "Check Database Settings", Page 3 is displayed.
This page tells me that..
Connecting to Server: Failed
Connecting to Database: Failed
The installation documentation that came with the download is sparse. I needs assistance.
Thanks in advance.
