I'm trying to install Drupal and my host gives me the option of using MySQL 4 or 5. I went with 4 first, but 1and1 uses 4.0.27 and Drupal requires at least 4.1.

So after I put all of my database information in to the install screen, it gave me that error. I set up a MySQL 5 database and want to try to install to that..but Drupal won't let me change the database information. Where can i modify that info?

Have a look in settings.php (typically in the sites/default/ directory)

Can you explain what you mean by "Drupal won't let me change the database information"? What did you try and what happened?

If all you want is to start over with a new database, then just delete the sites/default/settings.php file. You may need to make it writable (755) before deleting it.
