mysql connection error

Post by yankee07 »

Hi, I did a fresh install and created a database, but I continue to receive the following three errors when i try to connect to my blog. Can you please help? Thank you

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to MySQL server on '10.0.11.206' (10060) in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\vietnameseblog.com\httpdocs\serendipity\include\db\mysql.inc.php on line 251

Is 10.0.11.206 where you're running your MySQL server? That's a locally-routed address, and it'll only be availble from a computer on the same local network.

Is ODBC really the the username of the MySQL user who can access your Serendipity database? (And why isn't it using a password?)

This is definitely a problem where Serendipity can't connect to your database. It looks like a server misconfiguration to me. You may want to talk to your server admins and find out why.
