Receiving 1045 Error when trying to run installer. (Windows 10 Installation)#5358

I believe I have followed the installation directions correctly.

When I try to run the installer I receive the following information.

errno: 1045, error: Access denied for user 'cats'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance for any and all help!

Hi there, that will be this section - create a database / user / password in the database; https://documentation.opencats.org/inst ... phpmyadmin

so whatever database name you create at this stage - 'itsmydatabase', 'imtheonlyuser', 'thisismypassword' - these need to be the same ones you type into the installer.
