WordPress has remained one of the best and easiest ways to get a sleek site up and running ever since its inception in 2003. As a matter of fact, current trends only show its popularity continuing to increase. WordPress is simple to use, and even hosting it yourself isn't that hard, as we'll prove to you in this article.
i got error at step 4 while running this code
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON wordpress_db.* to wordpress_user@‘localhost’;
ERROR 1133 (28000): Can’t find any matching row in the user table
this can be fixed by running following code
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON wordpress_db.* to wordpress_user@'localhost’identified by ‘password’;
I have gotten to the point of running the WP admin but it fails. Everything else worked as per your tutorial. Its telling me it refused to connect. Any thoughts?
