That's what happened:- After many tries with the SQL database, I received a mail from my provider with information about my SQL database:
username: woyzeck_manu
password: *********
database name: woyzeck_manu
database host: mybesthost.com
database port: 3306
- I began the installation (at: http://woyzeck.mybesthost.com/setup/index.php , since I put all phpwcms files in the main directory)
- On step 1 I entered the database data above (except the database port), checked "use persistent db con", let unchecked "create all db tables";
- On step 2 I let "webmaster" and "admin" as a try (hereafter I tried with woyzeck_manu and *********, with the same result) and checked "create admin account";
- On step 3 and 4 I let everything as default;
- On step 5 everything was red, indicating there was a problem, and it said "FALSE! (not existing)".
Since it was labelled: "Some "problems" maybe OK - you can check by testing phpwcms installation", I tried to copy the conf.inc.php to the include directory and login. If I login with "woyzeck_manu" it points to nothing (HTTP404). If I login with any other name (e.g. "woyzeck") it gives "Login incorrect". I suspect there is a problem with some path, but I can't find it out.
Here is the conf.inc.php in its actual form:

And the system's characteristics are:
system: Linux mybesthost.com 2.4.27-ipacct #23 SMP Fri Oct 1 09:21:05 CDT 2004 i686
server: Apache/1.3.31 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.8.19 OpenSSL/0.9.7d VDB/1.0.1
php: v4.3.4
path: /home/www/woyzeck.mybesthost.com
How can I fix the problem? Please help me, in German or English!
Many thanks from Italy,
Mauro
