Help, Please...

I am trying to connect to the following link at my web site:
http://www.sharedinspiration.com/photopost/index.php

I get the following message:

I cannot connect to the PhotoPost database. []

Has anybody ever received this kind of a message? I have emailed my hosting service, but I am not sure if it is a problem on their end, a problem with PhotoPost, or something having to do with my computer settings.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Lyn

You need to check your database settings, PhotoPost is telling you that it cannot connect with the userid/password and host settings. Check with your ISP if you are unsure of what these setting are.

You can find these settings in the config-inc.php file:

//**************** MySQL Database Configuration ****************//
// PhotoPost database host address, or leave as localhost
$host="localhost";

// PhotoPost's database name
$database="photopost";

// MySQL username and password to access PhotoPost's database
//
// These two variables are for the userid and password needed to access
// the PhotoPost database named above.
$mysql_user="root";
$mysql_password="";
