Getting error while install of Xerte 3.9.1

Hi,

I getting error while install of xerte 3.9.1 in database step
i have already created database and trying to install sql in that database but during install i getting error
i tried with none existing database so that xerte can create it itself but still its not working

SQLSTATE[HY000] [1045] Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

it gives connection error but when i try connecting with phpmyadmin using same database details it connects successfully with no error.

This really depends on the OS your installing on. New Linux installs prevent root to login on MySQL by default (event from localhost) over the network. phpmyadmin is probably using a unix socket to login. So please search for this error for your OS fro hints of how to fix this. Or you could consider to create a new new user using phpmyadmin, makking sure that that user has right to creaet a new database from localhost.
