I have a working drupal site on www.bluelatinos.org. However, when I type bluelatinos.org for the url, it gets me this error message: "unsupported database type". I checked the settings.php file and it lists my base url as http://www.bluelatinos.org and the .htaccess file also lists www.bluelatinos.org. My DNS settings point bluelatinos.org to my ip address.
Any idea of how to make bluelatinos.org point to the same files that www.bluelatinos.org points to?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

couple of options
You have a couple of options:
1. Somehow forward people from http://bluelatinos.org to the www.bluelatinos.org address - that is probably the best thing to do and the way to achieve it depends on your hosting solution. For me, it's a checkbox in my hosting server control panel. You may also have an option of doing it in the .htaccess file - I'm not really sure at the moment.
2. Apply the "tolerant base url" fix: http://drupal.org/node/32389
Let us know how if that solves your problem.

Thank you for the
Thank you for the suggestions. As it turns out, all I had to do is edit my sites/default/settings.php file with the right path to db_url and base_url. I was confused with this step because there's a folder with my site's information already there... I didnot realize that I needed it both the default and my site's folder.
Thanks for the tips! I appreciate your time.
interesting
That seems to be another way to solve this problem. I hadn't considered it before, but it makes plenty of sense.
I'm glad you got it solved and thanks for providing your solution.

Confusing message
I've just had the same message and I solved with a "chmod ugo+rX settings.php"... Seems that the error message is confusing...
Eureka!
This chmod corrected the problem for me as well. Thanks!!
