tina97 Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 hi, not sure if you still need help but take all the square brackets out of the MySQL code on config.php page,that should fix it you might need to take brackets out of "MAIL_SERVER" too define("EI_DB_HOST", "localhost"); define("EI_DB_USER", "xyz_ipn"); define("EI_DB_PASS", "xxxxxxx"); define("EI_DB_NAME", "xyz_ipn"); // // In order to install more than one installation of ipn on the same database, // you can select different prefixes for the tables ipn creates. // define("TBL_PREFIX", "eipn_"); Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/54123-mysql_connect-functionmysql-connect-unknown-mysql-server-host-help-plz/#findComment-807070 Share on other sites More sharing options...
