Hi Bill I keep getting this message. Can you assist? Thanks

- Error establishing a database connection
This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host’s database server is down.

Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
Are you sure that the database server is running?
If you’re unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host. If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums.

HI Bill Yes I renamed it. I have a question, is the password section of this file suppose to be changed like this? (‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘-’)

RE:
@Abigail – Did you rename and save the wp-config-sample.php file to wp-config.php with the correct login information as used for the database?
