almightyloseI am currently receiving the following error when I attempt to use the install.php on my server:
Error establishing a database connection
This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can't contact the database server at [host name]. This could mean your host's database server is down.
* Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
* Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
* Are you sure that the database server is running?
I am using an H-Sphere Control panel and set my database up through their MYSql server wizard. These are the specs that I am working with:
Host Name mysql10.hsphere.cc (216.157.145.55)
Port number 3306
Database Name ghettoo_overlord
User Name ghettoo_overlord
These are the current specs I am using in my wp-config profile:
define('DB_NAME', 'ghettoo_overlord'); // The name of the database
define('DB_USER', 'ghettoo_overlord'); // Your MySQL username
define('DB_PASSWORD', '[password]'); // ...and password
define('DB_HOST', '[have tried localhost and nearly every combination of host and port IP I could think of]'); // 99% chance you won't need to change this value
I'm beginning to wonder whether or not this is a host problem. Any help I could get would be appreciated.
