found something.. looking at my error logs, I found this ( this is on asandbox site)
25 2008] [error] PHP Warning: mysql_connect() [<a href='function.mysql-connect'>function.mysql-connect</a>]: Access denied for user 'nobody'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home/kdallmer/public_html/faq/inc/PMF_DB/Mysql.php on line 67
the script is trying to use noboby@localhost I did create a user and I used it on the setup page during installation..
Error I received was :
phpMyFAQ 2.0.7 Installation
The connection to the database server could not be established.
The error message of the database server:
there just is no real good FAQ scripts out there except for this one.. I cant give up

I installed this on a server I have with a seperate hosting provider and found that the script installed perfectly ..
What script can I run to compare servers and get my provider to accomindate this script? thanks for any help I can get!

Hi,
the inc/ directory needs 777 rights during installation if your webhost has a strange configuration like yours. Then everything should work with the installer...
