Integrating/Installing PP into IPB 2.1.4

[importdjcds]

I have an existing IPB forum and i'm trying to install PP with it so that users can create their own album and upload images etc. While installing i received this message:

We're sorry, but we encountered an error during the installation process...

Could not connect to or create the PhotoPost database.

Be sure your user has permissions to CREATE or create a blank table before hitting REFRESH or go back to Step 1 to check your database settings.

If you have corrected the error, you may hit GO BACK and try again.

I check my config_inc file and password and user name is correct

So i dont' know the error might be...

This is my forums config_global

[quote]$INFO['sql_driver'] = 'mysql';
$INFO['sql_host'] = 'localhost';
$INFO['sql_database'] = 'XXXXX';
$INFO['sql_user'] = 'YYYYY';
$INFO['sql_pass'] = 'ZZZZZ;
$INFO['sql_tbl_prefix'] = 'ibf_';

so how should i cofig the first page in the installation?

PhotoPost Database Host:
PhotoPost Database Name:
PhotoPost Database User:
PhotoPost Database Password :
PhotoPost Database Prefix (cannot be changed once set) :

User Database Host (enter same info as above if not integrating with a third party forum)
User Database Name :
User Database User:
User Database Password :


---------

is the // PhotoPost's database name
$database="photopost";

suppose to be changed to my current forum sql database

$INFO['sql_database'] = 'XXXXX''; ??

If you want to install photopost into your invisionboard database you would enter the invision details in both spots on the photopost config.

[importdjcds]

i have done that (entered the user name and password for both spots) but the only thing that i'm not sure is the this

in the default photopost conf it has

$database="photopost";

my invision conf

$INFO['sql_database'] = 'XXXXX';

am i suppose to change that to my invision database name in this case let's say it is XXXXX so should i put it like this... $database="XXXXX"; ?




and then for PhotoPost Database Prefix:

should that be myinvision prefix?

$INFO['sql_tbl_prefix'] = 'ibf_';

ibf_ instead of pp_

??

[Chuck S]

You leave the photopost table prefix as pp_ and enter your invisionboard database for photopost to use.
