 * I’m new to wordpress but not new to installations of this type or my server. 
   However, I am getting an error establishing a database connection when I load
   my wb-admin/install.php file. However, I’ve double-checked & triple-checked everything
   and can’t seem to get it to work. Help!

 * My site is: [http://www.mindysdesigns.com/Blog/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.mindysdesigns.com/Blog/wp-admin/install.php)
 * I followed each step exactly as stated in the installation process. Would that
   have linked my name & the db?
