Attempting to attach to database
Error description: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/usr/local/mysql-5.0/data/mysql.sock' (2) /home/content/j/o/e/joeycuccaro/html/upload/includes/class_core.php on line 311
The database has failed to connect because you do not have permission to connect to the server. Please confirm the values entered in the 'includes/config.php' file.


Any help would be appreciated. I believe it has something to do with the values in my config.php


Im using GOdaddy to host vbulletin. Here is what my information is according to my database information


MySQL Database Information
Status: Setup
Host Name:
euroaddiction.db.3323193.hostedresource.com
Database Name: euroaddiction
Database Version:
5.0
Description: Euro Addiction Site

User Name:euroaddiction
Read-Only User Name:joeycuccaro

This is is what i have in my config.php file...

$config['Database']['dbname'] 'euroaddiction'

$config['Database']['technicalemail'] '[email protected]

$config['MasterServer']['servername'] 'localhost'

$config['MasterServer']['username'] 'joeycuccaro'

$config['MasterServer']['password'] 'mypassword'

Any ideas on what is wrong? I previously had 'euroaddiction' as the master server username, but that didnt work either. Not sure what the problem could be here.

As far as granting all permissions for your database user im not sure how to do that with godaddy. I can get into MYSQL database and then go to managemyphpadmin but dont know where to go after that.

Found some instructions from Wayne... I will try it and report back.

replace the 'localhost' with the database host (euroaddiction.db.3323193.hostedresource.com)
