database and config file question from newbie
-
Hello all ??
Ok, I’m doing it again. Installing wordpress for someone, and I messed up. (see what happens when you think you finally “have it” ??
I messed up her database ?? so I went and added a new “database_b2”.
but I noticed that on the old b2config files, it says:
// ** MySQL settings **
$dbname = ‘sitename_b2’; // The name of the database
$dbusername = ‘sitename_username’; // Your MySQL username
$dbpassword = ‘thepassword’; // …and password
$dbhost = ‘localhost’; // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value
// If you’ve finished up to here you should be able to install now.
but on the NEW b2config file, it has:
// ** MySQL settings **
define(‘sitename_b2’); // The name of the database
define(‘sitename_b2’); // Your MySQL username
define(‘password’); // …and password
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value
// If you’ve finished up to here you should be able to install now.
Ok. So. My question is (and please remember, I Know Nothing About mysql) should I have changed where it says :
define(
to the:
$dbname =
could that be why I’m having trouble:
Warning: Wrong parameter count for define() in /home/site/public_html/b2config.php on line 24
Warning: Wrong parameter count for define() in /home/site/public_html/b2config.php on line 25
Warning: Wrong parameter count for define() in /home/site/public_html/b2config.php on line 26
SQL/DB Error —
Since all the lines (24, 25, 26) are in connection with the define/$dbname ?
Thanks for any info!
