iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 17, 2004 The error means it cannot connect to your MySQL database. Make sure you entered the database host (usually localhost), the database, and the user. For example:Host: localhostDatabase: meeko_mainUser: meeko_invisionPassword: passwordA common error is not putting your username infront of them. Use the name you use to login to Cpanel.name_dbname_userYou also may have not created the database or user. Or you could have forgotten to add the user to the database.Sorry if this comes off as confusing, I'm doing the best I can to describe it. But those are my guesses.
