 * so you have separated location of wordpress and database?, i`ve never done this
   before, but check your login details carefully (especially mysql path)

 * I connect via file zilla on the ftp
 * Yes i wouldnt normally try to seperate this but I have no choice in this instance.
 * The login details show the MYsql looking at the 1and1database which im then uploading
   to the hosting domain
