I'm in the process of configuring moodle 1.5+ under Mac OS X 10.3.9 Server (Apache 1.3.33/PHP 4.3.11/MySQL 4.1.12).
Following instructions I created a moodle database.
I can log into the database as the user 'moodle' with the proper password from the command line.
However, I get the following message:
'We could not connect to the database you specified. Please check your database settings.'
Is there some way of telling where the failure to communicate is happening?
TIA
This message is generated when either MySql isn't running, or when no database exists. Once my database was completely destroyed. MySql showed no database present and I couldn't create another due to a permission problem.
I was running on an Windows 2003 server and the only activity over the weekend was an Indexing Service rebuild. I don't know if that caused the problem, but when I rebuilt the database I shut down the Indexing Service and so far things are going well.

Click on the highlighted text ---> could not connect to the database
I had also found this myself after posting. The OLD_PASSWORD step needs to be in the installation notes.
