Whenever I try to go to my website now it goes to this message:

MyBB has experienced an internal SQL error and cannot continue.

SQL Error:
2005 - Unknown MySQL server host 'mysql.hourb.com' (1)
Query:
[READ] Unable to connect to MySQL server

is this something i can fix or do i have to go to my host? please let me know...thanks...

This occurs when you are using MySQL and the database host name is incorrect in ./inc/config.php. To fix this, open ./inc/config.php and check the entry for $config['database']['hostname']. If you do not know what needs to be here, contact your host provider.

ok i guess it's my host...pondering on whether i should stay with hourb or go to a paid hosting...hmmmm....LMAO...we'll see....
