<br>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">I'm new to CMS and am trying to install opencms on my laptop with little<br>
success.<br>
I'm using: OS X 10.2.6, java 1.4.1_01, tomcat 4.1.18, mysql 4.0.13,<br>
Safari<br>
1.0(v85).<br>
<br>
I can get the .war to expand and pull up the OpenCms Setup Wizard without<br>
problem.<br>
<br>
I have MySQL selected, DCS User = root, password empty, OpenCms Connection<br>
root, password empty, Connection String is jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/<br>
and Database is opencms. Create database and tables is checked.<br>
<br>
Clicking continue I get a Creating database... Failed with the following<br>
error:<br>
<br>
* * * * * * *<br>
<br>
Could no connect to database via: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/<br>
java.sql.SQLException: Invalid authorization specification: Access denied<br>
for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)<br>
<br>

I'm checking into the MySQL side to see if there is something I erred<br>
while configuring it.<br>
<br>
I proceeded forward and placed a password into the DCS and OpenCms<br>
Connection and hit continue and proceed to the warning regarding the<br>
database being dropped and I clicked Yes.<br>
I click continue after everything is ok, then get the green light that<br>
my componenets are working properly.<br>
<br>
I click continue and am promted to import workplace. I click Yes. I have<br>
not installed CMS before so I click no for the directory translation then<br>
hit continue.<br>
<br>
This brings me to the Status: screen. However nothing obvious is<br>
happening. The <<Back and Continue>> buttons don't appear to do anything.<br>
I can hit Canel which brings me to a screen indicating Setup Canceled<br>
followed by Click here to restart setup, however clicking that does<br>
nothing so I proceed again from the beginning.<br>
<br>
Now when I get the the Status: screen, I click underneath the the text box<br>
right underneath and hit enter and it brings me to the ActiveX page. I<br>
click the I have understood... box and then click Finish.<br>
<br>
I am now on the OpenCms setup finished page. The wizard is locked etc. I<br>
click to start OpenCms.<br>
I get an HTTP Status 400-<br>
type Status report<br>
message <empty><br>
description The requsted resource() is not available.<br>
<br>
I've checked my directories and have not come accross<br>
opencms/opencms/index.jsp structure anywhere.<br>
<br>
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.<br>
Regards, Michael<br>
