On my fanupdate page it says, "ERROR: Could not connect to database server." when I have the correct database server name in it. I'm using version 2.2.1 if that is needed.

CODE
// ------------->ADMIN VARIABLES

$fanupdate['admin_username'] = 'erin';
$fanupdate['admin_password'] = md5('CORRECT PASSWORD IS HERE');

// ------------->DATABASE VARIABLES

$fanupdate['dbhost'] = 'localhost';
$fanupdate['dbuser'] = 'erin';
$fanupdate['dbpass'] = 'CORRECT PASSWORD IS HERE';
$fanupdate['dbname'] = 'mysql';


That is everything that I edited and I have everything correct but it's not working. I don't know why it's not working either.

Well try connecting to all the other databases, or even create a new one called "fanupdate" or something. Also, make sure to revise the instructions one fanupdate. There should be like a file called readme.txt where it should have instructions. Do you have to CHMOD any files in fanupdate?
