    downloaded the file changed the code to match my sql for 1and1.
    uploaded all the files under WordPress to 1 and 1 ftp account
    now getting the 404 message

    website is excapeapparel.com
    i set up a new directory as news because i want the blog as the subdomain of my website under excapeapparel.com/news

    any ideas ? the only thing i can think of is that the is a confusion with the code between the page excapeapparel.com/news.html

    i also want my nav bar on that wordpress page if possible… ?

    thanks for the help

    It depends on how your hosting is set up. However, you should be able to create a new user, assign all the privileges for that user in relation to the database and then attach the user to the database. You’ll need to update the wp-config.php file with the new username and password once you’ve done so.

    The permissions have to do with the user. The permissions are assigned to the user, typically when you attach a user to the database. Did you create a new user and attach that user to the database?
