I have exactly same problem. I’m trying to setup textpattern on a personal university site but I’m getting this:
Checking database connection…
Warning: mysql_connect(): #HY000Host ‘juoru.uta.fi’ is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server in /home/home2/hy1/sh63216/public_html/textpattern/setup/index.php on line 187
Can’t connect to database
I couldn’t find anything in the mysql manual about configuring mysql so I can connect to it from external servers. Can anyone help me here?

Re: database creation problem
Nevermind, I found out that Dreamhost has an option in the admin panel to add external servers to connect to the database.
