Hi good1985boy
please check if the mysql server adress is correct. Most configurations only allow connections from localhost. So if you configured your IP adress it meight be that the user can't connect to the database then because he's not allowed to.
Plus: make sure you aren't using the root user. Create a user for that ostube database and give all privileges to that user.

i create a database named 'ostube' and create a user hava all privileges .
Caution: The database already exists. If you click "Next" the current database will be deleted! (you most likely want this)
i install PHPMOTION is right,i do know what's the matter!
Hi good1985boy
I have a suspicion... Please check in the GD section of that installation page if all picture formats are activated. If not, (re)install the php-gd extension and try again.

Hi ft
The mysql user you use most likely doesn't have the right to create databases. Please make sure that's the case or create the database beforehand.

Same problem. Have even
Same problem. Have even tried using user ROOT and the DB cannot be created. If I create the DB beforehand, it refuses to advance to step 2.
Also, the Community version I downloaded did not contain config.php - I had to download a previous version and copy that file from there.
Hi technology
please read what I wrote 4 posts above:

I guess that's your problem.

Same Problem here
Hi Karsten,
I have the exact same problem, tried everything mentioned above nothing works.
Tried different users, they all have access to create.
Tried creating the db first, same message as mention previously (ask me if I really want to do this, I click next and it stays on step 1).
I'm using the community edition for now, I'm evaluating different solution to eventually purchase a commercial license.
Thanks,
Hi mathieu
Did you've checked if you have the PHP-GD extension installed? The missing or corrupt GD extension installation usually is the problem at this point when it doesn't want to jump to step 2.

i hope my mean can help you.
thank you !
Hi good1985boy
Yes that's the usual way one would do an installation. If your database user you are gonna use for ostube doesn't have the right to create databases then you have to create that database and grant all privileges to that user before starting the installation of course.

I have no idea what good1985boy was talking about... it's a bit hard to understand...
Could you explain it a bit better please?...
I have the same problem.. when I make a database beforehand it says:
Caution: The database already exists. If you click "Next" the current database will be deleted! (you most likely want this)
When I delete the database it says:
The database could not be created.
Seriously... if this problem is already on the community version of osTube, people wont buy the paid versions at all...
Hi centrix
When I delete the database it says:
The database could not be created.Seriously... if this problem is already on the community version of osTube, people wont buy the paid versions at all...
Well - very few people have that problem here. In most cases it means either the database user you try to use doesn't have the right to create/delete a database on your database server. Or you try to configure a database server unreachable for the script (at an other machine for example). So please check that.
