 * Hey folks,
    I have my Site running.
 * BUt I finaly decided to copy it to my localhost.
 * I copied the files: I use WAMP on my Windows 7 Professional x64 machine.
 * I backedup my online database using phpmyadmin, importet it to my local phpmyadmin.
   When I’m trying to open the page I get the error Message”Error establishing a
   database connection”
 * What am I doing wrong there?
 * kind regards
 * winam
