Hello,
my hosting provider is in the process of adding mysql-5 to its services. The problem with that is, that php and therefor can not access the mysql-5 client. At least that is what I think what is happening as I get an error during the installation of Drupal-7. The error is shown below. I can access the database via phpMyAdmin (PMA) and via the command line. Is it possible to instruct (configure) Drupal-7 in such a way, that it will be able to find the mysql-5 client, that lives in /ur/local/mysql-5/bin
The error that is shown during installation is: Failed to connect to your database server. The server reports the following message: SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user 'rudolf'@'localhost' (using password: YES).
1) Is the database server running? Yes, PMA and the command line client work
2) Does the database exist, and have you entered the correct database name? Yes, it exist
3) Have you entered the correct username and password? See 1)
4) Have you entered the correct database hostname? It runs on local host.
Is there a way out of this?
