Hi. Sorry to bug you guys. But I\'m new to this stuff and I\'m having some trouble. I got past my first problem with the config file, I thought I was in my home strech when I got the following warning.
Warning: mysql_connect(): Can\'t connect to MySQL server on \'mysite.com\' (10061) in F:mysite.comwebgeeksystemdatabasesmysql.class.php on line 104
Cannnot connect to DB server
Can someone please help. Thanks.

Make sure you have MySQL running and that you have set the variables in config.php correctly.
Specifically, it looks like you set
$_DB_host to your domain name. That\'s usually not correct. Try localhost or ask your hosting service for the correct MySQL host name (it may be something like mysql.yourhostingservice.com).
bye, Dirk
