Can you connect via a shell on that same host? It looks like you didn't allow your webserver to access the database: > Warning: Host 'xxx.x.xx.xxx' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL > server in /home/web/linuxpro.co.za/www/htdocs/dev/index.php on line 7 This is a message from your databaseserver, not from your webserver. A relatively simple "grant [whatever] on [database].[tables] to [user]@'[ip.ad.dr.ess]' identified by '[password]'" should suffice. Please read as much of the documentation on mysql.com as you can. After all, this is a relatively basic MySQL question which in essence is not Debian related. Good luck!... Nico
