I was looking at link you gave me and the link to that, there are no help. I am trying to get this to work and like to purchase the commercial license of EZ Publish.
The problem is probably that you (or the host you're using) are using MySQL 4.1.x or newer without compiling the related MySQL library for PHP. In short, this means PHP can't connect to MySQL 4.1 and up because those versions use a new authentication protocol.
If you are in control of the database server, please have a look at my first reply (2nd post) in this thread: http://ez.no/community/forum/install_configuration/kernel_50_on_solaris_mysql_4_1_7_ez_3_4_3
USE mysql; UPDATE user SET Password = PASSWORD('<your password>') WHERE User = '<your username>';
and access denied. I guess, there is no other way huh? I like ez publish but I guess I have to find other script. How come ez publish does not promt for database name when install.
If you don't have access to the <i>mysql</i> database, there's little to nothing you can do I think. You can try to ask those who manage the database to enable old passwords.
eZ publish will prompt for the database name, but that will happen later on. The stage you're at only serves to get access to the MySQL DB server.
