And when i vist my homepage keep getting error " Can't connect to Mysql server. at Modules/DataBase.pm line 29. "

Dont have a clue what to do from here!

If anyone could come help me that would be great.

The error message describe the problem clearly: script can't connect to mySQL database using provided details in config.
Check your mysql database details.

so you claim that you use the following detais ??

Code: Select all


host = localhost
pass = password
username = username
database = username_database

or are you using something like this

Code: Select all

host = http://anywebsiteyoucanthinkof.com
username = default
pass = default
database = default
well , if you used the second quote , then change it to the first quote


The error it says is NEVER wrong
maybe not as mutch detais as in php
but that error can exist out of 3 things

username/pass/host is wrong

so please check your detais and be sure that host is LocalHost
pass is the password you used for your account
on cpanel the username = cpanel_username (username prefix , then database username )
