Community Support / "A records" for my own domain to work with Xtreemhost?

« on: March 23, 2012, 10:20:02 AM »

Hi I'm currently running my website with my own domain name. I used Xtreemhost's name server to make my domain work with Xtreemhost's web server.
However with Xtreemhost's control panel, I am only able to add MX records and CNAME records. Sometimes it would be very convenient if I can add TXT records.

Am I able to set A records to my domain company's settings so the domain connects to Xtreemhost's web server, instead of using Xtreemhost's name servers? So I can add other records to my domain in my domain company's setting panel.

I hope my question makes some sense.
Thanks.

Community Support / Error establishing a database connection

« on: March 21, 2012, 10:29:35 PM »

Hi, I just migrated a Wordpress website to Xtreemhost web server.

I modified the "wp-config.php" so the Wordpress will refer to Xtreemhost's server to get the MySQL database. I copy&pasted all the required values from the Control Panel.
I've also created a new database called "xth_10420826_wp" and imported the data from the old one and modified the "siteurl" and "home" records in "wp-options" table so they have my new URL.

However even after doing this and when I go to the top page, I get an error message saying "Error establishing a database connection".
Here is an abstract from "wp-config.php" and is where I've modified:

Code: [Select]

define('DB_NAME', 'xth_10420826_wp');
define('DB_USER', 'xth_10420826');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'myPasswordOfXtreemHost');
define('DB_HOST', 'sql108.xtreemhost.com');

define('FTP_BASE', '/myDomainName/htdocs/wordpress/');
define('FTP_CONTENT_DIR', '/myDomainName/htdocs/wordpress/wp-content/');
define('FTP_PLUGIN_DIR', '/myDomainName/htdocs/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/');
Am I doing any wrong?
Please give me a help.
Thanks.
