If you have already tried an install, you certainly bungled the config.php file, replace that file and try again.

You trying to install this at a live website or on your computer?

Because you don't give very much away when asking a question.

the path indicates: its a live server

make a copy of your DB,  upload install file and install Icy .

then import the database again

If the database is empty, it may not make the copy, make sure that the data are all correct.

one question.

is this a hosting plan or a server.

make shure the user you use to connect to database has all permissions. you should be able to see that in your c panel
