is that for the php code to connect? if so you got too much for it. for connecting you only need$dbhost = "localhost"; (if on Xisto use localhost)$dbuname = "username";$dbpass = "****";$dbname = "dbname";(correct me if im wrong)hope this helps if i understand right.

it might be helpful if you include your site so we can

check the errors first hand

 

anyway, try double-checking on your user permission

settings at cpanel. if you created a db with the correct

user permission settings, you will be presented with the

correct connection strings to follow in your configuration

(most specifically, for the $dbuname & $dbname you must

use). i'm using uni.cc so my mysql connection string

automatically prefixes my uni.cc subdomain (serverph)

to the $dbuname & $dbname. (i don't know if it works the

same way for those with Xisto subdomains.)

 

a sample connection string (generated from my own cpanel):

$dbh=mysql_connect ("localhost", "serverph_dbuser", "<PASSWORD HERE>") or die ('I cannot connect to the database because: ' . mysql_error());

mysql_select_db ("serverph_db");

sample config (which i used for my site) following the sample

connection string generated in my cpanel:

$dbhostname = "localhost";  //hostname dbserver

$database = "serverph_db";    //database name

$mysqluser = "serverph_dbuser";  //mysql username

$mysqlpassword = "********";  //mysql password

 

if i were to set my config following your coding variables, it would

appear as:

------

$dbhost = "localhost";

$dbuname = "serverph_nuke";

$dbpass = "********";

$dbname = "serverph_nuke1";

------

(note: the serverph_ is prefixed in the values for the

$dbuname and $dbname variables, because serverph is my

uni.cc subdomain. if your subdomain is toohot for example,

toohot_ will be prefixed. just change your configuration

accordingly.)

 

most mysql problems arise with incorrect user permission

settings, so you might want to check that first. be sure you

have a nuke user with permission to use your nuke1

db in your cpanel. after that, reconfigure the values in your

variables to reflect the correct $dbuname and $dbname.

 

and if you're still having problems after that, you might want

to play around first in setting up your mysql db with a simpler

php script. after you successfully set it up on a simpler script,

you can then go into setting up phpnuke more confidently.
