Configuring database or setting up the database remotely
Posted 16 years 6 months ago
I've uploaded and installed all of the files remotely on the server, including importing the database. Then I run the installer and it's not "connecting" with the database.
What step am I missing? Is it something with the configuration.php file? Anything else I need to setup to get the remote site to show and work properly?

When you installed Joomla, did you you point the installation to the correct database server with all the proper settings? This can be found in the configuration file of your Joomla root directory.
