Re: Database connection error

Hi,

This is likely because you have some of your database details entered wrong or a permission issue whilst trying to connect.

 

Can you check in you var/log/exception.log file to see if there are any errors in there?

 

If you don't see anything in there... edit the file app\code\core\Mage\Install\Model\Installer\Db.php and find the below code:

Mage::throwException(Mage::helper('install')->__('Database connection error.'));

Change it too:

Mage::throwException(Mage::helper('install')->__($e->getMessage()));

This time when you try it should output some error message indicating which part of your setup was wrong.

 

Let us know how you get on.

Re: Database connection error

Hello
1. The error message that I see is "
Database server does not support the InnoDB storage engine.
"
I'm not able to go through configuration step during magento 1.9.1.1 EE installation with WAMP.

2. The solution to the error message that I face with is : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15443448/magento-install-complains-about-missing-innodb-when-it-i...


In my case there is no app/code/core/Mage/Install/Model/Installer/Db/Mysql4.php file.

Any tips?
