connection string in config files

[bizzygroup]

I just changed to mySQL 501 and imported my database. Now I am told I have to change the connection strings in my configure files.

 

this is what it has now in /catalog/includes/configure.php

 

// define our database connection
 define('DB_SERVER', ''); // eg, localhost - should not be empty for productive servers
 define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', '');
 define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '');
 define('DB_DATABASE', 'osCommerce');
 define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persistent connections?
 define('STORE_SESSIONS', ''); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'

 

and this is what it has now in /admin/includes/configure.php

 

// define our database connection
 define('DB_SERVER', '');
 define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', '');
 define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '');
 define('DB_DATABASE', 'ZAKIRC_iota');
 define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false');
 define('STORE_SESSIONS', '');

 

Is this where I add my info? Are there other places too? Where do I put mySQL 501?

 

I don't know

That is the correct place. You do not need to put mySql 501 anywhere. All you need is the server namer, username, password and database name
