Hi - I have just set up a mac mini lion server. I have downloaded and copied to the right places the zen cart installation files. I have downloaded and installed MAMP. I have created a database in MySQL under localhost, and I have created a user with ALL rights to that database. The database is of course empty (without any tables). I started the zen cart installation and got a clean bill of health during system check, then when I am supposed to enter database information, I get the following message:
Connection to database failed. No such file or directory.

Sadly - I am quite new to server management, so I ran fast out of ideas what can be wrong. Can anyone give me some hints - something to check out to help me solve this?

Thanx!
