installation error: cannot connect to server

I looked through, but I couldn't seem to find anything on this problem

I am trying to install what looks like wonderful software, but can't get past the permission reversal section.  I am trying to run this on Windows XP.  I have an smf forum and coppermine gallery running fine.  I have checked to see that all of the php settings are correct and have checked that the ports are open with my router.

please help

thanks in advance

have an update....it doesn't say that it cannot connect anymore, rather it just tries to run the installation again and again....

which version of xxamp are you running, and i see you have team viewer running on your machine as well. i would tend to believe you might need to downgrade or possibly upgrade. what version of php do you have there with you?

Maybe your DB's user name and password was wrong ?

I am not running xxamp. I am running apache 2 for windows.  I am running php version 5.2.12.  not sure what team viewer is?

as for not logging into the database it didn't come up with an error when installing.  did try putting in other information and that made it come with a "couldn't log into database", so I know my original info is correct
