    I am hosting a Joomla 1.15 site at one.com that I want to migrate to WP.

    I want to migrate the content via FP Joomla to WP
    I get an error message: Connection failed.

    === START import 2016-02-06 18:42:59 ===
    WordPress content removed
    [ERROR] Couldn’t connect to the Joomla database. Please check your parameters. And be sure the WordPress server can access the Joomla database.
    SQLSTATE[HY000] [1045] Access denied for user ‘admin’@’10.246.64.134’ (using password: YES)
    Please read the FAQ for the solution.
    === END import 2016-02-06 18:43:00 ===

    I checked my login and pasword, and they are correct.
    At the FAQ it states: If Joomla and WordPress are not installed on the same host, you can do this:

    But at one.com Joomla and WordPress are installed on the same host so that is no option.

    Please help. I want to migrate with users/password so I will need the pro version, but I need to connect.

    I contacted one.com and they state that the only connection optieon is via PhpMyadmin, not via a tool. Is that correct?

    Please help.

    Joomla Source: svoisterwijk.nl
    WP target: wp.svoisterwijk.nl

    Double check the database login and password. You can find them in the Joomla file configuration.php.
    You can also compare the Joomla file configuration.php and the WordPress file wp-config.php.

    Thx, case closed, it was the username that was incorrect ??

    I get the same error message. But in my config file I cannot find a port number. Where can I find it?
