 * This is what I have changed from the sample file. also added to the server “localhost”
   as empty db file at my host.
 * define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘shangrilowna’); // The name of the database
    define(‘DB_USER’,‘
   KomputerKlub ‘); // Your MySQL username define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘******’); // …
   and password
 * Just to confirm: my wp-config.php file is in the ../ directory NOT in the ../
   wp-admin/ directory – OK?

 * Thank you – yes, I have followed your advice and sent in a ticket but careful
   reading of their help section shows that I should be using “localhost”.
    This
   has just got to be something obvious that is escaping me.

 * Me too – exactly as above. I don’t think I understand the full signifigance of“
   localhost”. I’m using lowesthosting.com
    Can someone give me a pointer? Thanks.
