    • I really, realy found the "issue". Where the install screen asksfor the datbase name (after I created a database manually), you have to enter the full name, like, name_dbname, not just "dbname" then the install went right on.

      I haven't tried doing that without the manual creation, yet.

      Also I did download the newest rocketlauncher, which I notice is samller than the one I had been trying.

      Thank you.

      "dbname" works fine on a local host but most hosting providers require your accountUserName_dbname.

      Glas you resolved it
