Jack_mcs Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 The error is saying the database can't be accessed. You probably changed the login details for the database when you made your change. That is fine but you also have to change them on the server.

♥geoffreywalton Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Just to expand on the above, edit the settings for db name, user and password so they match the values you have set in includes/configure.php and admin/includes/configure.php If you can't update includes/configure.php you will need to chenge the permissions on the file so it is writable and once you have updated it secure the file again so it is not writable.
