Hi need help instaling Web Mailing List The code is one of the easiest i have ever seen but not sure why it will not install. Part of what i am to edit are: <?php mysql_connect("localhost","username","password") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("newsletterdb"); ?> I created sql user name & pw & edited it same with the other file i am to edit <?php session_start(); if ($_SESSION['admin'] != 'yes') die("Only admins can view this page."); mysql_connect("localhost","username","password") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("newsletterdb"); ?> each time i try to create it by clicking the create.php it keeps saying the database already existed and when i delete it , it says users cannot connect to database. thanks
It sounds like a permission issue. Though I can't be sure based on info you provided. You need to ensure admin acct has correct db create privileges. Also, the webuser mysql account should only have record insert privileges.
