problem with data base

[mofomofo]

hello guys

 

i have installed prestashop offline on local server " i have used wamp"

then i have free host at funpic.org

i have uploaded the site but i receive the following message :

Link to database cannot be established

 

so what would i do ?

 

i have figured out that is a data base issue but then what ?

thanks in advanced

PrestaShop 1.4.5.1 running on local moving to a remote host, apache 2, php 5.3.8. These instructions are for a subdomain. Just remove the subdomain from the instructions and it will work fine for domains.

 

see this: http://www.addons-mo...ps_shop_domain/

 

Changed the following fields in the new remote mysql db table yourprefix_configuration:

PS_SHOP_DOMAIN alpha.mywebsite.com.co

PS_SHOP_DOMAIN_SSL alpha.mywebsite.com.co

• Uploaded site files to subdomain/domain root
  
• Exported shop localhost database, created remote server database and imported the localhost sql
  
• Updated the settings.inc.php as follows
  

· From: (running localhost)

 

· define('_DB_SERVER_', 'localhost');

· define('_DB_TYPE_', 'MySQL');

· define('_DB_NAME_', 'prestashop141alpha');

· define('_DB_USER_', 'root');

· define('_DB_PASSWD_', ‘mypassword’);

· define('_DB_PREFIX_', 'alpha_');

· define('_MYSQL_ENGINE_', 'InnoDB');

· define('__PS_BASE_URI__', '/prestashop141alpha/');

To: (running remote) subdomain alpha.mydomain.com.co

· define('_DB_SERVER_', 'localhost');

· define('_DB_TYPE_', 'MySQL');

· define('_DB_NAME_', 'alpha');

· define('_DB_USER_', 'alpha');

· define('_DB_PASSWD_', ‘mypassword’);

· define('_DB_PREFIX_', 'alpha_');

· define('_MYSQL_ENGINE_', 'InnoDB');

· define('__PS_BASE_URI__', '/');

 

Resulted in:

Back Office – will not accept my password. Reset the pwd : See http://nickbartlett....-in-prestashop/

 

This site is working both on the back and front sides.

I already have prestashop sites on my remote server so I know that the necessary modules are loaded.
