4.0.1 installation problem

[Tbronson]

Scratch that, thanks! (It wasn't clear to me from the installer what was the db usr/pwd, as opposed to the application pwd... Got it now.)

---------------------
I'm installing the 4.0.1 for the first time, and keep running into the same error at Step 6 of the wizard:

"Creating the config file...done
Installation is proceeding... the output will appear below once it is complete. Please wait.
Dropping table relationships if exists...Unable to select database: Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'xxxx'

I've retried several times. The database is set up, the usr/pwd are correct, PHP is 4.3.11, al is standard as in other LAMP installs on the same server.

Thanks!

can you enter into mysql using command line:

mysql -u USER -pPASSWORD -h localhost

If yes then your user/pass is correct.
