I decided to try the auto install, and it looks ok, but I am still waiting on the DNS One annoying thing: I want to transfer multiple domains from another hosting later, so I am confused about use of the folders My anticipation was to use a new db and new folder for each domain I transfer Softaculous install did install in the folder I specified, but now I am seeing Admin url .... www.mydomain.com/folder/wp-admin I am guessing that some .htaccess configuration is needed to see this as Admin url .... www.mydomain.com/wp-admin ?? OR did I install wrong .. or am all confused TYIA! Jonny

Greetings! First post & first time user of HH && first time user cPanel I am still waiting on the DNS to completely propogate I am manually installing WP with intent of going to WPMS immediately I have done this multiple times on another hosting that uses a different panel #1. No offense to the auto-installers, but I have heard if I use them I may run into problems with WP upgrading Is this true or not? #2. I can not get the install to work/make database. Error: Error establishing a database connection This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can't contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host's database server is down. Database Name I have used both 'domain_name' &' name' User Name I have used both 'domain_user' & 'user' Password is correct (YES I am sure) Database Host localhost Table Prefix '1233Q23_' Any solutions available?
