MySQL help please!

drmaximus · 03-31-2004, 10:27 PM

Trying to install some php scripts and the program asked me for:
MySQL server, username, password and database name. What are those? I created a user, password and database through CPanel, but what is the MySQL server? Is it my main domain or the add-on domain (into which the script is to be installed and to which the script has been uploaded).

Also, what does this mean?

Warning: mysql_connect(): Host 'xxx.yyy-zzz.net' is blocked because of many connection errors. Unblock with 'mysqladmin flush-hosts' in /home/abcdef/public_html/domain/phpscript/abc.inc.php on line 26

HELP!

Just put localhost for the server and use your CPanel details for the rest like you are, hope this helps

MySql is a database commonly used with PHP scripts and programs. Do you have one set up on your server? If so, then you need to add that information to the script.

Hey cool thanks! Glad to help out, getting to know the forums a bit better now, I've become a bit of a domain maniac the last week or so, cheers!
