Hi!

I am trying to install bbpress with WP 2.3.

In the config-file for bbpress I have written EXACTLY the same databasename, username and password as in the config-file for WP.

Still, when I run the install.php for bbpress I get several lines of “warnings”/error messages before the installation text “Welcome to…”

Warning: mysql_get_server_info() [function.mysql-get-server-info]: Access denied for user ‘nicuuorg’@’localhost’ (using password: NO) in /home/nicuuorg/public_html/neonatologyforparents/wp/bbp/bb-includes/db-mysqli.php on line 80

Anyone understanding what’s going on.

The WP runs without any problems.

Could it be related to that the username is not correctly read from the config.php-file. The username is nicuuorg_stefanj, but access is denied for 'nicuuorg'@'localhost' according to the warning above.

I downloaded trunk and it now works. I hope there’s a new release soon that will incorporate these changes so I can use something a bit more stable than the current development version. It seems to be working fine, though.
