Re: Cannot Connect to mysql

The error means either you have the wrong hostname entered in the config, or the MySQL server is down. Double check your info, if you're sure it is correct, try checking that the actual MySQL server is actually up and running.

o_base_url is in the config table for 1.2, you will need to remember the clear the cache afterwards though. For 1.3 it is in config.php
