 * Hello I am hoping that someone can help me.
    I am trying to install WordPress
   on a Demon.net server but keep getting a failed to establish database connection
   error message. The info that I have to provide i.e db_user and db_password are
   correct, I believe the problem is with the db_name and db_host variables. I am
   getting conflicting info as to what these are but none of the options seem to
   work!
 * I am hoping against hope that some either knows what the specific variables needed
   or has successfully installed WordPress on a Demon.net server.
 * I have the current variables as db_name= myaccountusername
    and db_host = localhost.
 * I keep getting through to a call centre and after literally hours of phone tooing
   and froing I thought I’d try a forum.
 * Thanks in advance!!

 * Hi thanks, but tried this before and it didn’t work. When I called I up Demon.
   net on separate occassions, I was given 2 other db_names and they didn’t work
   either.
