config.php - DataBase, MasterServer, SQL - dbname, servername, username, password

[SpreadingLight]

Hi, I hope this will help other newbies too!

config.php - DataBase, MasterServer, MySQL - dbname, servername, username, password


At my Host, I have:

an account:
Domain Name -
Username -
Password -
Server -

and I have a MySQL:
Database -
Username -
Password -



Is this the correct way to enter the info at config.php?


account:
Domain Name -
Username -
Password -
Server - ['MasterServer']['servername']


MySQL:
Database - ['Database']['dbname']
Username - ['MasterServer']['username']
Password - ['MasterServer']['password']



THANKS :)

Please wait 12 hours before bumping posts.

That is not the correct way to edit config.php. See this:

thank you.
I know how to enter the settings, but I don't know which username and password to use. I posted that format hoping it can help others. :)


I found the answer http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=156547


['MasterServer']['username'] and ['MasterServer']['password']
are the MySQL db username/password, the ones you created in your control panel.


Thanks :)
