Moving Concrete5 to another hosting problem
Permalink
Hi guys, I have pretty much followed the instructions concrete5 provides (http://www.concrete5.org/documentation/installation/moving_a_site/) but I am having a problem.
When I try to open my site in the new directory it has an error message "unable to connect to the database".
I have no idea of what can be wrong.
Anyone can give me an hint? that would be great!
Thanks

What may be happening is there may be a new database name and password that is different from the one you had with your old hosting company.
You can check the details for your database connections by looking in your site.php file and checking the details in that against your new database name and password.
Hope that helps :)
