Error (2005) : Unknown MySQL Server Host 'http' (1)

Thank you.

What's the value of

$pnconfig['dbtype'] = 'mysql';
$pnconfig['dbtabletype'] = 'myisam';
$pnconfig['dbhost'] = 'localhost';

pass: my-login-pass
DB name: (again) me_pnuke

You entries should look something like this:

HTH

hello,
Mine looks like this:
$pnconfig['dbtype'] = 'mysql';
$pnconfig['dbtabletype'] = 'myisam';
$pnconfig['dbhost'] = 'localhost';
$pnconfig['dbuname'] = 'me_pnke';
$pnconfig['dbpass'] = '********';
$pnconfig['dbname'] = 'me_pnke';
$pnconfig['system'] = '0';
$pnconfig['prefix'] = 'nuke';
$pnconfig['encoded'] = '0';
$pnconfig['pconnect'] = '0';
$pnconfig['temp'] = 'pnTemp';

Should i change to $pnconfig['prefix'] = 'PN'; FRom $pnconfig['prefix'] = 'nuke';

No the prefix is ok. That's just a string that PN puts before the tablename.

Your config looks ok. Strange that you would get that error.
It looks like the script is setting the value of the $dbhost variable to 'http' somewhere.

You did follow all instructions in the /doc folder of the .761 installation files right?

Yes i think i did everything what the manual says, lets see manybe there's something i missed out. Will let you know and would appreciate more of your help. n thanx for the help already recieved....But dont think am done as yet :D

Reupload the includes directory and see if that helps.

Are you sure? The error would also occur if you had http://localhost/ in the host box.

Really Verry verry Sorry ainigma32 n Hammerhead...it was a careless Error on my part for not following the instructions carefully. This is what happens when we dont follow instructions properly...well as i went thru the manual.txt i came across step no.9 where only users below the .723 version had to go thru this step http://ur-site.com/dir/install.php which i did yesterday n kept getting the error instead of skipping to step no.11...having used the .760 version i only had to invoke upgrade.php from my browser http://my-site.com/upgrade.php n follow the simple steps provided. Once followed everything, the procedure was somewhat simple.
i again apologise for unnecessarily troubling those who helped me and thank you once again.

Glad you got your problem sorted. ;)
