I seriously need help
I am new to drupal and I have listen to training from Lynda.com and all other about installation of Drupal 7. But my problem is Yahoo Hosting. I want to include my database information in to the “database name”, “database username”, “database password” and “database host”. I have all the information input but I still have error. I contact Yahoo and they told me that I have to input my server address into my database host instead of using TCP/IP number because the server system is sheared.
