mySQL database is set up, but with Error!

For instance if my 'mysql' database is named forum, my server address is 192.168.0.1, my username is administrator and my password is pass
 
How do I edit the  database_connection.asp file? I have tried differnet things but nothing works.
 
I am editing the following line:
 strCon = "Server=" & strSQLServerName & ";User ID=" & strSQLDBUserName & ";Password=" & strSQLDBPassword & ";Database=" & strSQLDBName & ";"
 
Sorry if this is a stupid question!
 
Adam

The error seems to suggest that you haven't first created a blank database on mySQL to create the forums database tables etc. in.

In the database_connection.asp you don't edit the connection string file directly.

There is a place where you enter your S=mySQL server connection details:-

strSQLServerName = "" 'Holds the name of the SQL Server (This is the name/location or IP address of the SQL Server)
    strSQLDBUserName = "" 'Holds the user name (for SQL Server Authentication)
    strSQLDBPassword = "" 'Holds the password (for SQL Server Authentication)
    strSQLDBName = ""

These lines may need to be uncommented first.

Install instructions come with the software.

But it looks like your issues are with the setup of mySQL, you can checkout the mySQL site for help on setting up a mySQL database.

Try using version 8.01 and see if that sorts out any issues you may have.
