hi i am trying setup vbulletin on a free host called portland.co.uk but im having some problems. i already signed up for mysql. but when i goto step 3 in the installation of vbulletin, it gives me this message,
Attempting to attach to database...
Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (79) in ./ db_mysql.php on line 40
Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in ./db_mysql.php on line 47
and i also receive
Attempting to attach to database...
Connect failed: unexpected error from the database.
Error number: 1044
Error description: Access denied for user: 'dsfb@localhost' to database 'vbulletin'
Please ensure that the database and server is correctly configured and try again.
i know that i configure my config.php correctly. i left the server hostname/ip to 'localhost'(and i also try putting the ftp ip). i set the username and password to the same thing that i use to login to my portland ftp site. what could be the problem so i can get vbulletin to work?
