installing the database


Recommended Posts

Hi

Am trying to get past stage 3 in the installation - the database bit in Wamp on my home PC.

I thougth I had created the database via phpadmin called prestashop

However at stage 3 it cannot find the database and I am stuck.

Can anyone point me to a really basic guide to getting this right.
I am not a database/coder just a learning merchant.

Thanks

If you have created the databse, you should add some privileges for it. So you will have to click on Privileges tab (within phpmyadmin), here click on Add a new User. You will be forwarded to another page. On this page add your desired username & password. Just under the username is a field called Host. On this field select Local (from the dropdown). The last step would be to scroll down on Global privileges and here click on "Check All". Hit OK and try to install prestashop again :)
