I have defined (just for testing) a user in my SQL named "pubuser" and
granted it access to a database "publications." Of course I also created the
database and two tables.

I can access and manipulate the tables via phpMyAdmin and I can log in to
sql using pubuser via the command-line interface.

I have the following php code:

    <?php // login.php
    $db_hostname = 'localhost';
    $db_database = 'publications';
    $db_username = 'pubuser';
    $db_password = 'abc';
    ?>


also I have a test web page:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;  charset=UTF-8">
<title>Connect to SQL</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
Echo "Hello";
require_once 'login.php';
echo "got require";
$db_server = mysql_connect($db_hostname, $db_username, $db_password);
if (!$db_server)
  die("Unable to connect to MySQL: " . mysql_error());
  echo "Congrats, it seems you have connected to the server<br />
       host: $db_hostname<br />
       user: $db_username<br />
       password: $db_password<br  />
       for database: $db_database<br />";
  print_r($db_server);
  ?>
</body>
</html>

If I try to run this, it briefly says "connecting to localhost" and then
indefinitely it says "waiting for localhost..."

If I comment out the connect statement, the rest runs.  What should I look
for?

Thanks

If you gave the priv through phpmyadmin, you might want to try running
FLUSH PRIVILEGES to get those new ones to take effect.


I did that - in fact, I shut down apache and mysql and restarted then as well.
