Hi, I am new to these forums and I wanted to test out vbulletin and so I made a free server with Siteburg.com and it is a free webhosting which allows me to have php and an MySQL Database and the the server is ht*p://testforum89.siteburg.com/ and the account name for siteburg is testfo21 and the pass ####### and the MySQL database name is also testfo21 and the pass is different from the actual ftp login and I am running the install.php script and I keep getting the error
Warning: mysql_errno(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/t/testforum89.siteburg.com/WWW/forums/includes/db_mysql.php on line 140
The database has failed to connect because you do not have permission to connect to the server. Please confirm the values entered in the 'includes/config.php' file.
Does anyone know what is wrong?
