This isn't really the place for user support, you'll have much better luck in the forms. Also posting the same thing twice isn't going to win you any fans.<br><br>Your problem is, as stated, vtiger can't connect to your database. If you have some technical knowledge the line that's failing is line 50 of install/3confirmConfig.php you may be able to figure it out from there. My first guess is that your mysql installation doesn't support/allow persistent connections.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Here is what I have:<br>-- vTiger 4.2.3</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">-- MySQL Server version: 4.0.24<br>-- PHP Version: 4.3.2<br> </span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">I know the database connection works well because I wrote a separate test script with the same host name, user name and db name.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The following threads report the same problem but I found no solution so I was wondering if anyone on this list can help me out</span></p>
