usererror

Thanks, as far as I can tell, wp-config is correct – I connected with the db with mysql workbench using the same credentials.

It appears that the permissions hadn’t been granted, but even after granting full admin rights to the user, it still won’t connect.

Localhost is looking for (or can’t access the db -I can access the db through the command line & mysql workbench, so why can’t localhost?). How can I tell where is it looking?
Thanks

In case it helps any other newcomers, I found that my wife’s very easy to set up blog is on WP.com. That explains why she didn’t have to install anything, and why I was puzzled by there being no way to “get started” on the WP.org page, just the “download” button.

Andrew,
Thanks, that clears a lot up.
Cheers

Iman, thanks. I couldn’t think of how to word the question to swearch for this Last thing I want to do is break an expensive website!

We have 6 domains in our package, is it OK to install WP on on of the different domains? – it looks to me that they’re all separate entities.
Cheers.
