 * I’m using godaddy’s database…is there a trick getting the wp-config.php to find
   the database…I set the database and checked the user and passwords
 * “
    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? ”
