Thanks for the help. I appreciate it!

Oh wow. Thanks I'll try downgrading now.

Tried both. No luck. Not sure why the install page is trying to access db before any kind of form is submit.

I haven't tried using elasticsearch. Not sure what that is but I'll give it a shot. <?php $config['db']['host'] = '127.0.0.1'; $config['db']['port'] = 3306; $config['db']['username'] = 'root'; $config['db']['password'] = ''; $config['db']['dbname'] = 'xenforo'; $config['db']['socket'] = null...

Still the same issue. I don't have any database tables because I never was able to go through the install process since the install page throws an error. I don't understand... :x

It had a weird collation set. What collation should I use?

Now I receive this error on 127.0.0.1/forums/install Keep in mind, nothing ever loads on this page. It's always an error.

Okay. My config file is called config.php.default. Is this normal?

I don't have that file. (The full.zip file I downloaded from customer portal also does not have this file.)

Yeah, that's my issue. I fresh install a brand new xenforo forum then I load localhost/forums and it directs me to localhost/forums/install BUT on that screen I get that error included in the original post. I never even get a chance to enter db info. It's instantly an error which is really weird.

Hey, thanks KSA. I've tried that and I get another error saying something along the lines of database_xyz does not exist. I'll get the exact error and update this message. For some reason the install process seems like it's being bypassed. Also, I thought I didn't need to change the config file...

Hey, quite a nooby question... I've setup XenForo on remote hosts before but for some reason when trying to set up a fresh install on localhost using XAMPP I receive this error: An exception occurred: [mysqli_sql_exception] Access denied for user ''@'localhost' (using password: NO) in...

@Eclixal did you find a way to do this?
