    Hi All,

    I’ve installed Modx probably 35 times on Linux/MySQL hosting. I now have a client who has hosting on GoDaddy and it’s windows hosting. I’ve created the database and can’t get past the Database Information first screen. It just tells me the database connection failed. I know I have the correct info plugged in or at least what should be the correct info, but no dice.

    Are there any tricks I need to know? I can log into the Database using PHP MyAdmin with no problems.

    Here is the info:

    Host Name:modxbestbuds.db.2521423.hostedresource.com
    Database Name:modxbestbuds

    I know that I have the password correct.

    Any help would be appreciated.
