In reply to: Error establishing a database connectioni´m sure i got the correct spelling, because I copied and pasted the words directly from the database-interface ..
to change mysql-options sounds pretty complicated to me …

In reply to: Error establishing a database connectionyep, i can change the username and database-name whenever I want. I will do so when I have everything running …
But still I have this problem … What do you mean with typo????
you can see username (cedis) and databasename (wordpress)
there is no “typo” in it … or what do you mean?Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Error establishing a database connectionThis is what I filled in to the wp-config.php:
——————————————————–
<?php
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘wordpress’); // The name of the database
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘cedis’); // Your MySQL username
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘lione5’); // …and password
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value// You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique prefix
$table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!// Change this to localize WordPress. A corresponding MO file for the
// chosen language must be installed to wp-includes/languages.
// For example, install de.mo to wp-includes/languages and set WPLANG to ‘de’
// to enable German language support.
define (‘WPLANG’, ”);/* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */
define(‘ABSPATH’, dirname(__FILE__).’/’);
require_once(ABSPATH.’wp-settings.php’);
?>—————————————————-
is there anything wrong?

Error establishing a database connection
This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host’s database server is down.Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
Are you sure that the database server is running?
If you’re unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host. If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums.
