Never mind — I’m a massochist and tried it all one more time for sh-ts and giggles — it worked. I think it was the wp-settigns fix that did it. Thanks all for your support.

Okay. I have tried the following with no success — looking for ideas.

1) Ensured correct wp-config DB_HOST location — even deleted mysql, recreated it and tried again.

2) Tried walking through the CHMOD instructions in tis post — twice

3) Attempted to comment-out lines 53 and 54 in the wp-settings file as sugegsted in another post.

4) Attempted all of the above on a linux-php server account and an upgraded cgi account.

I’m going nuts and very close to dumping wordpess — (I should dump godaddy, but hey I have a year to go on the contract) thoughts?

I was intrigued by this solution. When you say “reference out,” what do you mean — simply delete the lines?

Hey this was very helpful. I’m bummed that I needed to upgrade to deluxe as well. Hopefully this will now work. Live and learn. I’ll probably change my hosting next year.
