error while installing moodle in windows
Title
Question
While installing Moodle in my laptop-windows 10, I am getting stuck at database installation page.
Database configuration page
In the Database configuration page
1. Enter your database credentials
2. Database host: localhost (by default localhost) ...this is ok
3. Database name: moodle-st ...this is ok
4. Database user: moodle-st ...not able to change this..."root" is written there...notable to change
5. Database password: moodle-st...this is also ok
Apart from the above two, more boxes are shown:
<label for="id_prefix" style="font-weight: bold; margin-top: 5px; margin-right: 5px; margin-left: 5px; cursor: pointer;">Tables prefix</label>
<input class="text-ltr" id="id_prefix" name="prefix" size="10" style="margin-bottom: 10px; height: 20px; padding: 4px 6px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; color: rgb(85, 85, 85); vertical-align: middle; border-radius: 4px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); border-width: 1px; border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.075) 0px 1px 1px inset; transition: border 0.2s linear 0s, box-shadow 0.2s linear 0s; direction: ltr !important;" type="text" value="mdl_">....left this box like that itself
<label for="id_prefix" style="font-weight: bold; margin-top: 5px; margin-right: 5px; margin-left: 5px; cursor: pointer;">Database port</label>
<input class="text-ltr" id="id_dbport" name="dbport" size="10" style="margin-bottom: 10px; height: 20px; padding: 4px 6px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; color: rgb(85, 85, 85); vertical-align: middle; border-radius: 4px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); border-width: 1px; border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.075) 0px 1px 1px inset; transition: border 0.2s linear 0s, box-shadow 0.2s linear 0s; direction: ltr !important;" type="text" value="">....what to enter here??..I left it like that itself and clicked NEXT
But shows error
Cannot create the database.
The specified database does not exist and the given user does not have permission to create the database.
The site administrator should verify database configuration.
Please help me with how to proceed
