Problems with DB connect

[Richardsonha]

I have been having some issues connecting to the MySQL DB. I have used my own PHP scripts to connect, as well as things like word press. I have installed them manually and through Powweb's install platform, with no luck.

The strange thing is I contacted Technical support, and voila a copy of wordpress installed from Powwebs platform started working after a tech support guy "encrypted"? my password for me.

Then I uninstalled that version of wordpress because first he said it would be ok and two I want everything to be manually managed. I installed it again. and boom Neither it nor I can connect to the database again.... I don't get it....

Any ideas?

So what you're saying is that when somebody else configures an application in your web space it works, but when you configure the same application or another application it does not. Is that correct?

If the above is true then I suggest the problem is the methods you are using.

Show some code snippet of what you're using to connect to the database. Of course remove the user/password and replace with XXXXX's or something...... but let's see the code.

Then show us some snippets from your error logs
