I am lost on what exact information that I need to get my site to connect to the server (taking Joomla site to Godaddy.com host). Try, http://howw1.org/joomla/ to see what I am talking about.
I know that in my configuration file that i have to alter the following information (I used this as a template: http://docs.joomla.org/How_do_you_copy_ ... te_host%3F.):
var $log_path = '/var/www/vhost/domain.com/subdirectory/html/logs';
var $tmp_path = '/var/www/vhost/domain.com/subdirectory/html/tmp';
var $live_site = '';
var $host = 'name your remote host';
var $user = 'your_user_db_name';
var $db = 'your_db_name';
var $password = 'your_db_password';.
It's just that I have no idea what I have entered into it that is incorrect. Could somebody please look at what I have and point me in the right direction (obviously for security reasons I must substitute some phrasing, which will be in bold).
var $log_path = '/var/www/vhost/howw1.org/html/joomla/logs'; (Anything you see wrong?)
var $tmp_path = '/var/www/vhost/howw1.org/html/joomla/tmp'; (Anything you see wrong?)
var $live_site = ''; (Does anything go in here?)
var $host = 'DATABASE NAME.db.SOME NUMBER.hostedresource.com'; (This is the Host Name/ DB url that was given to me. Is this the correct information that needs to be entered into this field.)
var $user = 'DB USER NAME'; (Obviously I entered the user of the DB's name.)
var $db = 'DB NAME'; (Name of DB)
var $password = 'DB PASSWORD';.
I'm pretty new to the web creation scene, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
