UKHost4U and MySQL - How to connect?

been waiting an hour to find out correct way to connect to mysql at UKHOST4U, thought someone on here may know?

Been using the following code, database, user & password are all setup correctly:

$hostn='localhost';
$dbn='cpanel1_dbname';
$passn='password';
$usern='cpanel1_usrname';
$dbh = @mysqli_connect($hostn, $usern, $passn, $dbn);
if(!$dbh)
    die('hmm that did not seem to work; please try another day..');

I have obvioulsy changed the actual values.

I have just moved to UKHost4U - Am I missing something?!

Solution

  • I had to contact them and 'then it worked' as per normal..
