It didn't look like you were using a user name and password with the script. Also, did you do as the error message suggested and try opening the test/phprunner.php file up in a browser?

Hi,
there are two problems in your setup.
At first you uploaded phprunner.php to the root directory on the site, not "test". So enter

http://www....co.uk/phprunner.php

in URL box in PHPRunner.
Next you need to contact your server admin to find out if MySQL server is installed at your hosting and what connection parameters you need to use.
