Hi

I recent;y installed a program called osCommerce on my site. Its a shopping basket/shop system that allows people to make orders with no hassle. I entered all the required fields in the installation( eg. server=localhost, DBname=whatever_zxq_net_oscom, DBuser=whatever_zxq_net_sdmin) which i had prepared before hand. The installation progressed without any problems (supposedly) and after the installation, the program gave links to the shops page and the programs shop-management-admin page. they both displayed these similar messages:

for the shop page:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'vhostswww'@'10.10.124.196' (using password: NO) in /www/zxq.net/g/r/e/greenboxmalaysia/htdocs/catalog/includes/functions/database.php on line 19
Unable to connect to database server!

and for the admin page:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'mysql'@'10.10.124.196' (using password: NO) in /www/zxq.net/g/r/e/greenboxmalaysia/htdocs/catalog/admin/includes/functions/database.php on line 19
Unable to connect to database server!

I asked someone elsewhere on the company support forums and he asked

"Have you set up these users, to have access to the osC database you had previously set up, in your hosting service's control panel?"

Listed in the warnings are these "users" that i have seen when i opened phpMyadmin. i don't know how to assign privileges to these users. Has anyone experienced this problem before?

(note: i am completely ignorant of SQL)

Read though this

Actually there was no problem with that. what is strange is that it is asking for the users 'vhostswww'@'10.10.124.196' and 'mysql'@'10.10.124.196' which i don't know how to add a password for.

Look for a "config.php" file it should have some space to put the "Host, Database User & Database Password"

Example

Actually, before you posted that, i reinstalled the program, and it seems to work, but the admin page is still not functioning.

it displays this now:
