Hi, I have linux hosting and have had much trouble installing the bulletin board. I have all the files uploaded to the remote folder, I changed the conf.php to "666", and it is in its own folder in the remote folder. I type in all the correct information, I use godaddy so it was all there. I had an issue it this the statement I got:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'Baitrunnerhomie @linhost199.prod.mesa1.secureserver.net' (Using password: YES) in /home/content/e/l/i/eliteballer1/html/phpBB2/db/mysql4.php on line 48

phpBB : Critical Error

Could not connect to the database


Can anyone help me? I honestly do not know what else to do. I filled in the information I was given.

Well it seems you have your configuration file contains invalid MySQL credentials. Maybe a little more insight may be given if you could tell us precisely what Bulletin Board you are trying to install. You may also want to verify your credentials again via GoDaddy, or alternatively visit there support center regarding the matter.

Hi, I was installing (http://www.phpbb.com/) bulletin board, I have spoke with godaddy many times and they cannot help me, they just show me what I need to fill in and what the basic steps are. I followed them but this error showed up. What are the does and donts when uploading the message board file to the remote folder? I did configure it to "6-6-6" in the config.php after I uploaded the file, this was part on the instruction.

Any suggestions?


Thank you
