But the INSTALL doc tells me http://mrbs.sourceforge.net/view_text.php?section=Documentation&file=INSTALL that you need to create a database manyually $ mysqladmin create mrbs (Or any name you want) I believe a bunch of tables are provided too for each DB. Choose the tables.my.sql and do $mysql mrbs < tables.my.sql (Do this in the directory where the table is present or give the full path to the tables) Open the file called config.inc.php of mrbs and in it, add the line $dbsys = "mysql"; $db_host = The hostname that the database server is running on. $db _database = The name of the database containing the MRBS tables. $db_login = The database login username $db_password = The database login password for the above login username Now, it should work --- Ashok `ScriptDevil` Gautham _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [email protected] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
