RE: [cobalt-users] I give up

["Isa Alemdag" <isa@xxxxxxxxx>]

Don't give up. That piece of software and their mail list is a bit odd. You
can ask this question here
http://two.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/osc-general . If you are lucky, you
might get support. They have a dump file to create DB.

Cheers, Isa.

 define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '');<<<<<<<Put your MySQL root password

there a schema dump??
