asd Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I have just moved my site from another host and used a backup. On the other host the MYSQL Address was localhost. However, when I try to use this same value on this webhost, I get a "Can not connect to database" error. In phpbb you need to assign the MYSql Address to a variable in config.php: $dbhost = 'localhost'; So I need to know the address. Thanks . EDIT: Whoops, I did not make a MYSql account, that is why I was getting the error. For anyone who cares, the MYSQL Address is indeed localhost.

kvhc128 Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 The MySQL address on this server is localhost as well. You will need to go to Cpanel and make a MySQL user and database. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
