Solved: 14 Years, 4 Months ago
Undecided As I am steping through the Install Wizard I reached database configuration. I continue getting the error message below. I have called Yahoo help desk and a rather aragent fellow from India could not give me the info for the database Server Hostname. He kept saying it was mysql. That did not work.

My website is wggray.com. it is hosted on a Yahoo server. The errer message and fields below are what comes up.

Any Suggestions??

Database ConfigurationError
There seems to be one or more errors with the database configuration information that you supplied:

•Could not connect to the database server at 'localhost' with the supplied username and password. Are you sure the hostname and user details are correct?

Once the above are corrected, continue with the installation.

It means either the host, user or password is wrong. Check that they are correct, and then contact your host if they are correct.
