trouble with script (sql error?)
here's what i need to fill out:
$config['basedir'] = '/home/username/public_html';
$config['baseurl'] = 'http: //w w w*website*com';
$DBTYPE = 'mysql';
$DBHOST = 'localhost';
$DBUSER = 'database_username';
$DBPASSWORD = 'database_password';
$DBNAME = 'database_name';
(bold = positive its correct).
So here's what I have.. the website i'm scripting is actually a subdirectory, its called hatewhatever* com.. Hatewhatever* com is intalled (and points to) /hw because my other site is installed into the root. I have "basedir" as /hw and "baseurl" as hatewhatever* com , as for local host, i just clicked on my sql info and copied/pasted the info which is basically myhostingusername*myhostSQL* com, it does not display or ask for port numbers, but i've tried 3306 and it still didnt work. also i've tried dearidiot* com as baseurl, also dearidiot* com/hw and basically every variation of it.
does anyone have ideas?
its particularly frustrating because i've never attempted something like this, and i spent $50 for the script.. I'm up to the challenge and want to learn these things but I have no one to ask except you guys
any help is appreciated
