Rocket Launcher Database Issues
-
Hello all! I have recently started a rocketlauncher install of a theme onto a site for a client. This is my first website and I am in need of some help!
The client had already installed WP onto the hosted plan so I went in and uninstalled it.
I then used the GoDaddy Cpanel and FTP manager to upload the zipped RocketLauncher file into the root of the site.
I unarchived the file to find that the wp-config.php was actually a wp-config-example.php file. I downloaded the file and went to edit the information for the database
*******************************
EXAMPLE:<?php /** * The base configurations of the WordPress. * * This file has the following configurations: MySQL settings, Table Prefix, * Secret Keys, WordPress Language, and ABSPATH. You can find more information * by visiting {@link http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php Editing * wp-config.php} Codex page. You can get the MySQL settings from your web host. * * This file is used by the wp-config.php creation script during the * installation. You don't have to use the web site, you can just copy this file * to "wp-config.php" and fill in the values. * * @package WordPress */ // ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** // /** The name of the database for WordPress */ define('DB_NAME', 'REMOVED BY MODERATOR'); /** MySQL database username */ define('DB_USER', 'REMOVED BY MODERATOR'); /** MySQL database password */ define('DB_PASSWORD', 'REMOVED BY MODERATOR'); /** MySQL hostname */ define('DB_HOST', 'REMOVED BY MODERATOR'); /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */ define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8'); /** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */ define('DB_COLLATE', '');

When I went to look for the database info in the hosting I noticed, there was NO database set up. I set up a database and filled the appropriate information into the Config.php, I renamed it correctly and uploaded it.
I am now getting this error:
“Error establishing a database connection”
I have double and triple checked the usernames and passwords… still getting this error.
HELP PLEASE!
