Hi Robert, 

No, the software is free now so you can download and install as many copies as you like!

Hi Robert, 

Yes, the next step is to determine what username and password will work for MySQL and update those.  Your web host should be able to provide those for you.

Also, be careful to not post passwords to the forum, I edited your post for you.

Hi Robert, 

That's a generic error message from MySQL that means the username, password, and hostname combination is not correct.  

So the first step is finding the right login details so the CMS can connect to MySQL.

You should be able to safely try many variations on that install page if you have any other ideas about what the right password might be.

Hope that helps!
