I got so desperate I created an empty file by Notepad then named it “en_US.mo”. I uploaded it to the langues folder.

Next I got the “file was empty” error message instead of missing file error. So I opened up the file and hit Space key 10 times. Uploaded it again.

Finally, everything worked without any error message! I was able to log in and change settings!

I’d still prefer a more “official” way of solving it, but I am content now. Just thought that I would share it.

Thank you mrkingid. My hosting company changed the FTP password last October and told me the password for the MySQL database passowrd should be the new FTP password. I typed in the new password and got the above connection error. However when I changed the MySQL password to the old FTP password, the install.php actually worked partially.

I can see the intro message and a link to “First Step”. However I also received the following error message:

—

Is it safe to start clicking on step 1 and set up? Or should I try to make the errors go away first?
