Trouble installing

Post by Dayna Bedrosian » Tue Apr 30, 2013 2:38 pm

I am trying to install Joomla for the first time on a Server that I have. It looks like it setsup fine and then it gives me an error message. Here is the log. http://pastebin.com/L5vq2RL6

Also I am running Apache, MySQL and PHP on a program called Wamp that we have running on a second server. I would appreciate any help with this.

Do you have IIS 7 or higher?

I was able to get the the Install page and ran into an issue. I put in the Host Name which i'm guessing is the IP address for SQL. I tried the outside static IP address alone and with :3306 and no go. I tried the domain and nothing. I tried the local network IP for the MySQL server and again nothing. I get the same message below. I have SQL setup and running on a different server and it doesn't seem to want to connect to it.

Could not connect to the database. Connector returned number: Unable to connect to the Database: Could not connect to MySQL.
