Instead of suppressing the error message using the @ sign, why not remove it and your die() statement and see what error is produced on your live server?

Hi All! In order to make my job easy, a choose the following approach: settings.php <? $dbserver = 'server'; $dbname = 'name'; $dbpass = 'password'; ?> main_file.php <? include "settings.php"; @mysql_connect($dbserver,$dbname,$dbpass) or die ("Error"); ?> On the test machine (Windows 98, PHP Triad 221 - PHP 4.1.0) it works; when I put the project online, it doesn't (the "Error" message shows up). If I don't use this approach and, in main_file.php, I use the line: @mysql_connect('server','name','pass') or die ("Error") the sistem works.
