MySQL not connecting

[rokkwarr]

http://stygianrenegade.co.cc is connecting fine however http://the-continuum.co.cc I received a alert on it timing out, when attempting to access the site, it fails and sometimes shows a SQL connection error, any reason why its doing this? They are both on the Stoli server so why one is functioning and the other is not is beyond me.

What is the MySQL error? The site that fails is due to an error on your page, which should be reported in an error.log file (or something like that) in the directory of the page.

The most common MySQL error is that after the server upgrade, you can no longer user the server as the host name. Instead, localhost is now required. Please verify that both scripts use localhost as the host to connect to MySQL, and post back.

I've actually used localhost whenever and wherever possible no matter my hosting or what I'm using, the site gives no error besides being unable to access the database while my http://stygianrenegade.co.cc which uses the same database is completely able to connect without issue. It's not a configuration issue as the site was working fine before migration.

FYI, there is a problem with the .htaccess redirection on http://stygianrenegade.co.cc/ . As for http://the-continuum.co.cc/ , try to manually view and edit the config file.

okay.... I could of sworn that said localhost.... Perhaps it just autoset to the actual host upon install or something. Well reset to localhost and now functioning again, jeeze that was a pain in the butt but thanks for reminding me, though stygianrenegade seems to be functioning normally without issues the way it is, I could post my .htaccess file here for you to go over and point out what needs tweaked?

Hi rokkwarr,

Yes, feel free to post your .htaccess code here. You may want to include it in [code] tags so it's easier to read.

well the Stygian Renegade one is pretty cut-and-dry

The-continuum.co.cc is much more complicated,
