Trying to connect database on HostGator


Recommended Posts

Ok, It's been a little while (a couple of years) since I tried to connect to a mySQL database and I'm having issues.

 

So Here's where I'm at:

 

* kept server as localhost

* entered both database and user names in the username_databasename fomat that Hostgator uses

* entered the password that I gave username_databaseuser (not the password that I used for entering cPanel)

* Set the engine to MyISAM

* Left the tables prefix as ps_

 

I know that what's wrong is something simple, but it's not coming to me. Any ideas? I'm on HostGator.

 

Thanks

Heather
