Impossible to connect with MySQL.

Hi,

I am unable to connect WordPress with my Dbase.

I get the message : Error establishing a database connection.

I have tried everything, assuming that the server is running and that everything is ok.

Is there a special syntax to respect on the wp-config.php file?

I tried 3 different versions, first one (as installed), the second one with ‘….’ and the third one as show, ‘…’ and a ,

// ** MySQL settings ** //
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘wordpress’); // ‘…’,
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘username’); // ‘…’,
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘password’); // ‘…’,
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // ‘localhost’,

I am running under Apache 1.3.37 and MySQL 4.0.23.

By the way, I cannot auto-install the script by myself (its rejected by the server settings).

Thanks for your help,
Ray.
