Hi Everyone,
I am trying to install Oxid_esales 4.5.8_42471 ce on ArchLinux_64.I followed all the instructions as described.I created a database oxid_eshop and a user oxid_user with the required privileges.After I entered all the database info and user info I kept on getting the following error: [B]ERROR:no database connection possible! connection refused[/B].I have no idea what might have gone wrong.I also searched the forum and tried to increase the character length for the suhosin parameter but this doesn’t help either.Mysql version is 5.5.20.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks 
Hi,
I guess you are sure that you use the right user name and password. As you already tried to increase the suhosin parameter I could imagine that there is an issue with MySQL 5.5.x. Do you have the possibility to connect to another MySQL version? Also, it could be possible that the 64bit OS might provoke this error…
Regards
did you entered “localhost” as mysql server or something like your ip or 127.0.0.1?
sometimes mysql server only listen to localhost.
Thank you all for your quick reply.The problem has been resolved.It was actually related to hosname of my mySQL server since I was using virtual hosts on apache Webserver.Now Oxid_eshop has been installed successfully and is running quite well.
Thanks alot
