Hi again. Ok, seems like i haven't resolved this issue. I thought i had, but the TV server was not installed. The issue is related to the database used for the Tv server. I have tried completely removing MYsql, deleting everything i could find there, and also uninstalling Media portal using a deep clean and deleting everything i can find related to it. This is on a new install of windows 11 pro on a new PC with an AMD 5600G with 16GB ram and an NVME drive.

I tried installing mariadb manually, but don't know how to set it up or what to do. My problem is with the TV server, the install fails to connect to the database. So when i skip that and proceed i cannot run the TV server configuration, as it also cannot connect to the database. The fault message is:

Connection failed. "authorization to host "my computers name" for user "root" using method "mysql_native_password" failed with message "access denied" for user "root@my computer name " (using password: YES).

I know nothing about databases and just want this to work. I have tried installing version 1.33 64 bit and also 1.35. same issues. What should i do. Thanks, des.
