Well it seems like there are problems with the database, are you on a host or is this on a local machine?

Best is to ask on your hosts support forum what the database host name is as this isn't PHPFusion related.

Searching for an answer I found out that they went through changes and you might wanna look at the old news. You should also take a look at this recent forum thread on their website and ask for help right there.
What you need is the correct settings to connect to your database and the rest will be taken care of PHPFusion Setup.
Good luck! :)

Just a question: why make a new install on v6 instead of v7?

Thanks very much for all your help thats supperb. Am still new to all this and still learning loads. Would never have found the answer on my own.
Is the first time I have tried a clean install. other time I just used the elefante instaler but it takes half the fun away.
Once again thanks.
