is writable by the webserver. If the file isn't writable phpAdsNew can't
store the configuration. You can change the file permissions on a Unix/Linux
server using the chmod command or by using your ftp client. If you need
more information on how to unlock the config.inc.php file, please read

Could not connect to database, please recheck the
settings you specified
This warning could mean two different things, first of all it is possible
the installer could not determine if the hostname of the database server
you specific exists and couldn't connect to it. This could be because
you made a typo, or because the server currently isn't available. Please
check the settings you entered and if these are correct, please make sure
the database is up and running. It is also possible the username or password
you specified isn't correct.
The user you specified doesn't have permission
to create or update the database structure
The user you specifed is a valid mysql user and phpAdsNew was able to
connect to the database with the user you specied, but when trying to
create a table MySQL reported the user wasn't allowed to. Before you continue
you need to make sure the user has enough priviledges to alter existing
tables and create new tables. If you are not sure on how to do this, please
contact the administrator of the database server.
Table prefix contains invalid characters
Table names can only contain certain characters. The table prefix is used
to create the name of the tables which need to be created and you used
a character which isn't allowed. Make sure you use only the following
characters: a - z and _.
