HELP! Dolphin Installer does not login to mysql database, HostForWeb asks for cash to install it!

I have about a dozen or so successful installs with hostforweb.com along with other ISPs. Is it possible you are putting in the incorrect login and password info? You can check out an installation video on my site.

I know this can be frustrating. The first thing I would do is start from the beginning and make sure your hosting provider has everything you need to run Dolphin, missing any of the requirements can cause errors upon installation. Look to the Dolphin documentation on common installation errors. Although limited I found this useful when I encountered errors upon installation.
Good luck

thanks for comments, I'm sure database login information is correct, but I will try it again several times. If it won't work, I'll use my personal mysql server. If it won't work again, I'll give up and close my account.

go to infrenion hosting thay will install dolphin for free.ok

I will install it for free on my hosting.

Host for Web is a Joke. But someone gets paid for sending them customers. and they are too big to care about 1 particular person.

Yes, we get paid for sending customers to HFW. $50 for each to be exact. Some hosts would pay up to $150, but we're sticking to the host that we believe does provide good mix of price/quality/support.

Anyone is welcome to try other hosts though.

Installation with HFW is always pretty seamless, so you may need to look at something else that's going wrong.

I need to find the email from HFW badmouthing the program. Off to search...

Well If you are just starting your DOLPHIN SITE and just want to test it out before going over to any hosting providers ... install

its worked good for me and if you start to get alot of visitors and your connection cant hold it , then just rent a vps and you can still host DOLPHIN on ur computer with RAY WIGETS on the VPS so it runs the RMS ... it has worked for me and it works great ... hope this can help !

I made the same mistake as you what you did wrong was entered your database information wrong. when you enter it enter it exactly as on your database, example: time_dolphin, user, time_time exactly as its written on your database . if you have any more questions feel free to give me a shout.

even i have installed successfully and working fine at
