I thought I did everything correctly when I uploaded coppermine on my ftp, but I can't install it. I get this error message:

Could not create a mySQL connection, please check the SQL values entered

MySQL error was : Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)

The "albums" and "include" folders are set to 777, and I have the correct version of mysql with phpmyadmin. Heres the link:

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Guys,

this error says you haven't provided the proper data to access your mySQL database - nothing we can fix about this, contact your webhost and ask them what your mySQL data are. If you don't have mySQL at all you're stuck (see minimum requirements).

My webhost definatley provides mysql. Its is MySQL 4.0.15. Like I said, I have phpmyadmin and I have working usernames and passwords for my database. I have already set up a forum without any problems, but I can't seem to get this to work.  Thanks

just to rule a common error out: did you make sure not to change the prefix to anything containing a dot (there mustn't be dots in table names, as they're used for other purposes in mySQL)?
