Problem with MediaTemple

Hi all,

I use MetiaTemple GridServer and after having installed mint 2.15 I get the following message :

Mint was unable to connect to the database. Please make sure that the correct values have been added to /config/db.php.

MySQL Error: Access denied for user ‘db14111’@’%’ to database ‘dna3multimedia’. (1044)

Any help?

Sounds like you might have put in an incorrect detail in the db.php file.

I just installed Mint on a MT GS yesterday, my details look like so:

$Mint = new Mint (array
(
'server'    => 'internal-db.MTUSERID.gridserver.com',
'username'  => 'MTUSERID',
'password'  => 'PASSWORD',
'database'  => 'MTUSERID_DATABASENAME',
'tblPrefix' => 'mint_'
));

Note, it is your database user password not the main account password.

Argh Now I look like a total newb. (Small mistake in the database name) Thanks for the pointer.

One important thing to note (for anyone else who might view this seeking help), is that with (mt) you can’t enter localhost, you HAVE to enter in your internal-db address.
