UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.threads 6 Version 6 Support "localhost" no longer works....

Someone was jacking with the windows 2000 server and the machine no longer responds to localhost.

What do I do now??

I am getting the following error:
**********************************************
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user: 'Administrator@127.0.0.1' (Using password: NO) in d:\inetpub\wwwroot\ubbthreads\mysql.inc.php on line 35

If I have to chenge something to reflect the new computer name which files do I change??

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Is it possible that they screwed with your database username or password? If so, you can re-set that information in the configuration settings area of your control panel.

It's definately a mysql issue. Changing your password/login info in the config setting should do as Rosemary says.

The file is config.inc.php, that's where the password and username for the database connection are kept <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Note, however, that it's recommended that you use the control panel to make changes like that, rather than altering the file/script.
