[SOLVED] Is there a difference between XAAMP and CPANEL when connecting to a database?

[webmaster1]

Hi All,

 

Just a quickie. I use CPANEL and myPHPAdmin. I can connect to a database fine when including the following file:

 

<?php
$host = 'localhost'; //usually localhost
$username = 'xxx'; //your username assigned to your database
$password = 'xxx'; //your password assigned to your user & database
$database = 'xxx'; //your database name
?>

 

Another PHP Freak is usng XAAMP but recieves and error message when using the exact same script.

 

Whats the difference?  ???
