To say the least I have been trying for 2 hours to get this installed and have had zero luck. I know this error has come up before for other users (googled it), but so far I havn't found a solution that works to getting this thing installed.
Error Message:
Component Install: DB function failed with error number 2006

Steps taken:
1) Tried normal install using Joomla "Upload Package File" installer = Failed
2) Disabled FTP in global config, re-tried uploader = Failed
3) uploaded extracted files to tmp directory and used "Install from Dir" = Failed
4) uploaded zip file to server and used "Install from URL" = Failed
5) uploaded extracted files outside of tmp directory w/ "Install From Dir" = Failed
6) uploaded files directly to tmp directory and tried to install = Failed
7) Said a prayer to the great linux penguin "tux" and tried all above again = Failed
Its almost 3am (3 hours of trying to install this now)...not sure if Im just really tired and over-looking simple, or if there is something else going on that I am not aware of. My site & server meet all the required specs after reading the read-me files, so not really sure where to go from here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
