Re: MySQL_Connect error ???

You could also have a connection error due to an incorrect database or 
hostname.  Make sure that you can connect to the database from the 
command line:

mysql -u <USERNAME> --password=<PASSWORD> -D <DATABASE> -h <HOSTNAME>

These parameters will line up exactly with the following in 
var/config.system.php:

$systemConfiguration['DB.UserName'] = '<USERNAME>';
$systemConfiguration['DB.Password'] = '<PASSWORD>';
$systemConfiguration['DB.Host'] = '<HOSTNAME>';
$systemConfiguration['DB.Name'] = '<DATABASE>';


Cheers
Rich
