Drupal Deployment Hostmonster

Posted by blanesworld on April 9, 2009 at 12:27am

Hi,

I'm trying to deploy my site from WAMP to my hosting provider HostMonster. I have transferred the database and ftp'd the files not to mention changing the $db_url in my settings.php file. The error that I am receiving is:

Site off-line

The site is currently not available due to technical problems. Please try again later. Thank you for your understanding.

If you are the maintainer of this site, please check your database settings in the settings.php file and ensure that your hosting provider's database server is running. For more help, see the handbook, or contact your hosting provider.

The mysql error was: Incorrect database name 'server_newdrupal/'.

I have checked the Database numerous times (deleted it, reuploaded, changed names etc...) and it seems that it should be the correct DB. Has anyone experienced similar problems? Is there a solution to this problem?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I got this once when I forgot to change the mysql server name to my host server instead of localhost (WAMP).

.... "server_newdrupal/"
