Your not connecting to the database.

  1. Database name may be wrong
  2. Username and/or password is wrong.

Make sure you add the user to the database :wink:

how do I add a username to the database. I installed wamp on my box and am trying to run in locally

I have not tried WAMP, but the WAMP site says it has the default value…

[color=#000099]When I start phpMyAdmin, I am prompted for a username and password. What should I enter?[/color]
Enter a valid database username and password. On installation, WAMP has created a user e_novative with password e_novative for you.
Maybe you should try that combo first…
