Indexhibit Support

This is what my host tells me. This is after tons of emails to locate the error whilst trying to install...

localhost won't work because the database isn't running on the same server. Its running on a server at 213.171.200.65. localhost is a nice way of putting the address 127.0.0.1.

The mysql database name is outofphrase and the user to access that database is outofphrase.
You can find PHPMyAdmin at...
https://mysql.prositehosting.co.uk/index.php?server=4&token=6c467acd0263cd6ac8349a355ba031e4&old_usr=outofphrase

The port for mysql is the default 3306

---------------------------------

Guidance please... I've sent an email to customize to see if I can ask you and pay for install. Otherwise how do i get the install to recognise the database?

The database I'm using is also linked to wordpress... but that shouldn't be e problem, right?

1- you don't have to use localhost to install indexhibit, you have to use whatever information your host gave you about the database server name. Localhost is common, that's why is given as a default, but not the only possible setup as your host explained

2- whether you'll be able to use the same database for both indexhibit and wordpress I don't know. It shouldn't be impossible as long as they don't use the same tables, but then again... if your hosting plan provides for multiple free mysql databases, I'd go for a separate one ;)

Thank you pernin for looking at my query. Yes I'm using exactly the IP address where the MySql database is hosted. Strange... I'll ask my host to set up a second database to test.

Thank you...

The above is the detail of the server info....

I'm desperate to use indexhibit! Help me install it please...

OK - possibly success.

I changed permissions on the ndxz-studio to 777 too and that allowed me in...
