Yes, your folder /home/G01/gracia/www/blog is still not able to be writable by the webserver user. You need to make the folder world-writeable (chmod 777) with either SSH access or FTP account.

Well, I was hing some trouble logging in to phpMyAdmin, but got that cleared up with my host, I ran the code you gave me and it returned the following meassage:


Your SQL-query has been executed successfully
SQL-query:
USE ekmesnz_numbone;# MySQL returned an empty result set (i.e. zero rows).
CREATE TABLE serendipity_entrycat(
entryid int( 11 ) NOT NULL ,
categoryid int( 11 ) NOT NULL
);# MySQL returned an empty result set (i.e. zero rows).


So what do I do from here?
Thanks.

NexusTwelve, so after you ran that SQL query, does the serendipity_entrycat table appear?

If yes, can you try to install Serendipity again and use the same username+password you used for phpMyAdmin as dbUser and dbPassword - and use 'ekmesnz_numbone' as dbName and 'serendipity_' as dbPrefix. Select mysql as your database extension.

This should really work, if it does in phpMyAdmin...
