I have tested your site:" http://nesht0.freehostia.com/" and it seems to be fully operational on our end. Please clear your browser cache and try again or check this issue with a different browser and on a different computer. If the problem persists I would advise you to open a trouble ticket from your account with us and provide us with more detailed information regarding the problem that you experience so we will be able to investigate this issue for you. You will be able to do this via the Open New Ticket menu of your account control panel Help Center section.

Hi Burton,

First thank you for you rapid answer to my previous msg!

My issue still be unresolved! And I'm sure it is a beginner issue! AND it is not related to FreeHostia platform. But could you please suggest a solution? Here is the details :

I created my Joomla 1.5 website on my PC. It works well. Then I decided to transfer it to my laptop (because it doesn't work on freehostia, so I decided to make this test), then :
1. I set-up easyphp on my laptop,
2. I copied the folder ..\EasyPHP5.2.10\www\ (from the PC to the Laptop)
3. I louched the website at localhost : It doesn't work and I have the following error msg in a blank page:
Database Error: Unable to connect to the database:Could not connect to database

For sure this is an issue about the datebase! But what is it about !!!!?
Could s.o. help me please?

Thank you in advance!

Regards

Hello,

Please assure that you have set the proper database prefix in the Joomla configuration.php file. You are able to check the prefix using the PhpMyAdmin tool which is accessible under the MySQL databases menu of your Control Panel.

Please let us know if you have any additional questions or problems.

Best Regards,
WidWool

Hi all,

The solution to my issue was as follows: I used PhpMyadmin to export then import my database (a .sql file).. and that's all.

Now, after developing my wbesite in local, I need to upload it. This is done and I need to upload also my database. Widwool anticipated well what I have to do. But..
My configuration.php file looks as follows:
Code:
var $dbtype = 'mysql';
var $host = 'localhost';
var $user = 'root';
var $db = 'CoMusicians';
var $dbprefix = 'jos_';

Should I amend these fields? Which ones precisly :?:

Thank you for you assistance. After finishing all this (after tests) I'll need to buy a professional url, maybe, from Freehostia. So I'll be your client :)

Regds

As far as I can see the database details specified for your scripts are not the correct ones. Please open a trouble ticket from your account with us and request your database details so we will be able to provide them for you. You will be able to do this via the Open New Ticket menu of your account control panel Help Center section.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

True.. Don't post in here different unrelated questions.. Make sure to directly address in to those persons who are in charge with the Q & A's.. :-)
