I need help setting up gllcts for my website at www.ghost-clan.org
For the config.php I have the following
// Begin User Config

$gllcts2_dbhost = "http://www.ghost-clan.org"; // Host
$gllcts2_dbuser = "ghostrc"; // Username
$gllcts2_dbpass = "*****"; // Password
$gllcts2_dbname = "gllcts2"; // Database
$gllcts2_dbprefix = "gllcts2_"; // Prefix for tables

// End User Config

ghostrc and the pass is what i use for FTP access to my webhosting server

I uploaded all the files and the admin and images folder to public_html folder via FTP, and when i try to run www.ghost-clan.org/admin/install.php
I get the error cannot connect to MySQL database

I have no idea what I need to do, cause the installation readme is very vague.
Thanks, -TiM

you ned to enter the login informations for your mysql database, not for your ftp.

And for your database server enter localhost instead of your domain.

So for dbhost i put localhost
and for dbname and dbprefix i leave it how it is?

And how do I figure out my MySQL database username and password?

I changed dbhost to localhost and left dbname and dbprefix the same and ran the install.php and i got this error: Unable to select database.

Could you please help me in depth?

This man is brilliant. I talked with him for 20 minutes or less and we collectively worked on getting gllcTS2 working on my website. If anyone else needs help getting this to work on their website they can email me at tim4@presidency.com
