I initially installed on my Hostgator account, but since then, I've copied the files installed on the Hostgator account over to my local Mac so I could set up my CSS over there and then upload the final version over to the Hostgator.
Problem is it won't work. I think it may have to do with the fact that I installed the files and set up the databases on my Hostgator account, and it may be expecting to find those files and databases over there, not the ones I'm trying to set up for its use on the Mac.
Whenever I try to access the main page on the Mac, it says:
"Access denied for user 'jayzallm_dnpl1'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
Error:
Could not connect to the database to read the site configuration."
One issue I'm noticing is that on the Hostgator, my "jayzallm" is the user who created the databases and such, but on my Mac, it's the "root" user that created the databases. Problem is -- I'm using phpMyAdmin to manipulate the databases, btw -- I can't get phpMyAdmin to let me logout as the root user and login as the jayzallm user to do the database work under that username to do it identical to the Hostgator server. I don't find a "logout" option anywhere on the Mac version of phpMyAdmin.
Is this the real issue, or is there something else at play?
Should I install directly on the Mac to get it to work right? I'm a little bit at a loss at this point as to how to move forward after fiddling with it for a long time with no result.
