Installation problem

:unsure:

Hi,

 

I have been reading through this forum to find the answer but to no avil.

 

this is the error message I get.

 

A test connection made to the database was NOT successful.

 

The error message returned is:

 

Access denied for user: '[email protected]' (Using password: YES)

 

and my config files are assigned as follows.

 

// * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)

// * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.jaucity.com/eShop/'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('HTTPS_SERVER', ''); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('ENABLE_SSL', false); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?

define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'http://www.jaucity.com');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', 'eShop');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '');

define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', 'eShop');

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '');

define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');

define('DIR_WS_ICONS', DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icons/');

define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', 'includes/');

define('DIR_WS_BOXES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'boxes/');

define('DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'functions/');

define('DIR_WS_CLASSES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'classes/');

define('DIR_WS_MODULES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'modules/');

define('DIR_WS_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'languages/');

 

define('DIR_WS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', 'pub/');

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/jaucity/public_html/eShop/');

define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'download/');

define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'pub/');

 

// define our database connection

define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost'); // eg, localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'jaucity_sales');

define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '********');

define('DB_DATABASE', 'jaucity_Shop');

define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persistent connections?

define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql'); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'

 

I confirmed that database is created and the user is added as user for the database. I am very new at this. Trying to learn and put up a test site...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.jaucity.com/eShop/');

would be

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.jaucity.com');

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', 'eShop');

would be

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/eShop/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', 'eShop');

would be

define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/eShop/');

then the database may be

 

define('DB_SERVER', 'jaucity.com');

or localhost

define('DB_DATABASE', 'jaucity_Shopdb');

 

It is the database that it cannot connect to so the database info is the first part to get right

Hey steve,

 

made the changes as you have provided, but I am still getting the same error.

 

My database was created with myphpadmin with database name jaucity_Shop.

 

just curious why this was defined.

define('DB_DATABASE', 'jaucity_Shopdb');

 

Anything else I could try?

I also use phpMyAdmin and if say the user name was jaucity the database was called jaucitydb and the domain name is used instead of localhost

I see, like I said I'm new at this... got anything else that I might try to resolve this? Been browsing this forum for two days. Try lot of thing other ppl said which worked for them... I must be missing something. Just can't figure out what.
