database probelm

😕 I uploaded all my files and set up a database and set all permissions as instructed on a PHP dating site script but I am getting the following message when i try and install:

Warning: session_start(): Cannot send session cookie - headers already sent by (output startedat /home/easyasab/public_html/dating/install.php:60in /home/easyasab/public_html/dating/include/config.inc.php on line 2

Warning: session_start(): Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/easyasab/public_html/dating/install.php:60in /home/easyasab/public_html/dating/include/config.inc.php on line 2

Cant connect to server Database dont exist Or Change Database name in config.

but my database is dating and user dating with password .

my config file listed as

MySQL data

define('C_HOST','localhost');// MySQL host name (usually:localhost)
define('C_USER','**');// MySQL username
define('C_PASS','**');// MySQL password
define('C_BASE','_dating');// MySQL database.

So all the database details match perfectly

You might want to remove your login info (username/password/database name) as it is very unwise to post this on a public message board.

Have you tried a simple PHP script to test this connection info that you have double-checked(?) to be valid? Example:

$conn = mysql_connect('localhost', 'user', 'password') or die('Error: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('easyasab_dating', $conn) or die('Error: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_close($conn);
echo 'Successfully connected & selected database!';

did a test and all these are correct

If the login info works in a simple test script as I showed above, I would say:

Check once again to make sure there aren't any typo's in the config file.
Look at how this script is trying to connect to MySQL - where is it getting the login info from (you might want to post a code snippet of this for us to see)? What if you hardcode your login info at that point instead of using variables/constants?
