I am brand new to PN, so forgive me if this is too simplistic. I have installed PostNuke on my hosting service. I created my database name, and PostNuke created 67 tables for me. I deleted index.html. When I type in my domain name, I get a message in bold print..."Problem with Database Connection". I can't access my admin page or anything. Can someone provide assistance? -

Yes. The installation created the tables for me, but not the database. -

It shoudln't have, but to create the tables, it would have needed the correct connection info, which should have been written, by install.php, to your config.php file. -

I created a new database in MySQL server and supplied the database information during the install. In phpMyAdmin, my database appears with 67 tables in it. -

I deleted index.html.
You mean you deleted "install.php", correct? -

another issue can be in your config.php
try changing
$pnconfig['encoded'] = '1';
to
$pnconfig['encoded'] = '0';
when it is already 0 the problem is something else -

I deleted the previous install and database. Reinstalled and it worked. I don't know why. Anyway...I am PN addicted already.
