garydt Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 My website and database works locally. I've uploaded some of my webpages and tried importing the database but the server wouldn't let me - error #1044 - Access denied for user. So i recreated the database + tables on the server. When i try to open a simple webpage it opens but when i try to open a webpage that needs the database i get- Fatal error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /homepages/3/d209077294/htdocs/Connections/elvisdb.php on line 9 What does it mean and how can i solve it? I'm using php and the server is with 1&1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick_whitmarsh Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Hey mate, Had problems like this before. Have you changed the connect such as the passwords and usernames to replicate those that you had locally? nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
