I use xampp 1.4.16 (with PHP4) as a server, Suse 9.2. I succesfully finished an installation of ez 3.7.0 but I can't enter to the shop! Kernel 1 Access denied. I started my site with debug mode and it return:
Error: eZMySQLDB
Connection error: Couldn't connect to database. Please try again later or inform the system administrator.
Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
I belive that 'root'@'localhost' is not my login to mysql because I esabilished other login.
whats goin on?

Next, I even cant get to administrative panel - kernel 50
No database connection could be made, the system might not behave properly.

in debug:
Error: eZMySQLDB
Connection error: Couldn't connect to database. Please try again later or inform the system administrator.
Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

I read about kernel 50 error lot of literature on this forum and I've tried everything to fix it up, but without results.

please, someone help me. I would like to run my site with ez.

Look in to settings/siteaccess/(your_site_name)/site.ini.append.php file in your Exponential directory and check database settings. In your case Exponential tried to connect to DB as user root.

I can't see anything wrong, do you?

Why it is trying to login as 'root'@'localhost' not as root (as it's written in the file)?
