Manual database creation

Mark Stevenson	Tuesday 18 November 2003 12:45:21 am Having tried to run through the wizard setup and it constantly timing out after entering the database details. I thought I'd do the manual setup as I'm fortunate enough to have telnet access to my site. I configured site.ini and i18n.ini as per the manual configuration docs. But am I missing something or are there no instructions on how to manually run the SQL to create all the datbase tables! I now get ... kernel (50) No database connection could be made, the system might not behave properly. because theres nothing in the database!

Mark Stevenson	Tuesday 18 November 2003 2:13:34 am Thank you, that has certainly populated the database. I still get the same error when I go to the default page though?
Mark Stevenson	Tuesday 18 November 2003 4:55:15 am Can anyone help. I've done a manual installation into the root of my domain, and run kernel_schema.sql and cleandata.sql for MySQL. I can see that the database is populated. I've uploaded settings/override/site.ini.append.php and I'm sure that the database settings for account/passwd are correct. When I go to my front page I see the login dialogure boxes but above them it says.... kernel (50) No database connection could be made, the system might not behave properly. I've tried to login regardless with admin/publish (is that the default passwd?) but Iget "Could not login"
