Hi there,
I'm trying to use Power CMS for the first time and I've read similar threads about solving this problem, but I can't work it out.

I have made my connection to the database with a testing server. all ok.
Then, I try to add the first content area in POwerCMS and it gives me an error message
"unable to edit database with provided uer credentials" etc etc.
I have checked and user access is all privelages. so ok.
Looking at other threads, this may be an issue with the testing server set up. But I can't see where. I am attaching a zip file of these settings, in the hope that you can please point me in the right direction.

Thanks very much in advance.

I have created a support ticket so we can look into this issue further.

I get this message ... Unable to edit database - first content area with PCMS ... The server is localhost . I have checked the PowerCMSConnection and the provided test button executes successfully.

Please help. All MySQL username and password have been checked and they are ok... MySQL commadline works.

Thanks for yourcontinuous assistance to all.

this error is an issue with the Dreamweaver site settings for connecting to the testing server.


make sure you have the correct settings for connecting to the testing server in your site definition.
