calvintage Posted August 4, 2005 Author Share Posted August 4, 2005 The username and password on the bottom of includes/configure.php are correct. Are they supposed to match something else in another file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 yes. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> this is the problem; you need to use the name and pass that you used to create the data base, not your ftp login Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milligan Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I did a lot of work on it.Put a lof of new images, text..etc... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Keep everything you have. The problem lies in the mysql connection attempt. PHP attempts to create a connection to localhost (which is correct if your website hoster is hosting your mysql server aswell) with the username buggyx (or something like that). So, like allready mentioned, either your username or password is wrong. Keep in mind that a lot of webhosts operate with DIFFERENT mysql and ftp username/passwords. Im afraid you'll have to contact your host for the correct info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
