after numerous attempts getting a little closer each time SS fails to install properly.
I'll try and come back at a later date but for the moment will look for an easier CMS to install.

hi tonychang,

don't give up. if you're having trouble with connecting to the db server you may want to try sqlite instead of mysql. sqlite has the advantage of not really having a db server ;)
