Error description: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) /homepages/19/d254600946/htdocs/.../.../includes/class_core.php on line 273
I have double, triple, and quadruple checked db name and db password.... so I don't "think" that is a the problem??? looking at the error link it may seem to have to do something with the link after the #2 about the /homepages/19/.../"site root"/"my forum root"/includes well the dots have info and I am just trying not to post that whole thing....

Thanks for the help! I have just hit a wall mentall and can't figure out my way around this!
