having problems figuring out all this database stuff
-
I have gone over this about a million times now. I have been messing with this for about 4 hours…. I have created a database on my server. i have added a user and given that user a password the data bassse is called idembroidery_com_blog . here is what my wp-config.php looks like
———————————————————————
<?php// ** MySQL settings ** //
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘idembroidery_com_blog’); // The name of the database
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘*******’); // Your MySQL username
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘********’); // …and password
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value
// You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique prefix
$table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!
// Change this to localize WordPress. A corresponding MO file for the
// chosen language must be installed to wp-includes/languages.
// For example, install de.mo to wp-includes/languages and set WPLANG to ‘de’
// to enable German language support.
define (‘WPLANG’, ”);
/* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */
define(‘ABSPATH’, dirname(__FILE__).’/’);
require_once(ABSPATH.’wp-settings.php’);
?>

when i go to http://idembroidery.com/peter/blog/wp-admin/install.php i get the error Forbidden
You don’t have permission to access /peter/blog/wp-admin/install.php on this server.

when i go to http://idembroidery.com/peter/blog/
I get the errorWarning: Unknown(/home3/stitch3s/idembroidery-www/peter/blog/index.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0
Warning: Unknown(/home3/stitch3s/idembroidery-www/peter/blog/index.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0
Warning: (null)(): Failed opening ‘/home3/stitch3s/idembroidery-www/peter/blog/index.php’ for inclusion (include_path=’./:/usr/local/lib/php’) in Unknown on line 0
————————————————————————-i dont know how much more info i can give. the server software is called boundless i believe. I clicked on MySQL Database to create the database. i gave the user full permissions. I even tried useing the main database with the root password and user name. still no luck. I have read through tons and tons of the tutorials and I think i have everything right.
thanks in advance for any help you can give.
