Blog Tutorial |

Hi there, I have just started using CI & got a bit of an intro doing the tutorials. Issue!?... I cannot connect to the database & the blog tutorial looks slightly different than the version i have got. Any ideas what i could be doing wrong? In autoload.php it says: | ------------------------------------------------------------------- | Auto-load Core Libraries | ------------------------------------------------------------------- | | DEPRECATED: Use $autoload['libraries'] above instead. | */ $autoload['core'] = array(''); So to connect to my database i wrote: ------------------------------------------------------------------- | Auto-load Libraries | ------------------------------------------------------------------- | These are the classes located in the system/libraries folder | or in your system/application/libraries folder. | | Prototype: | | $autoload['libraries'] = array('database', 'session', 'xmlrpc'); */ $autoload['libraries'] = array('database'); I have viewed & re-viewed the video, check & re-check my files & i believe my problem is coming from the explanation above. Thanks for your help Regards Fred

No that is right, the database should be loaded in the $autoload[’libraries’] = array('database'); array.

Make sure your db server is running and the settings in config/database.php are correct. A small typo there will bring the whole thing down.

The Video tutorial is old - using an old version of CI. Check out my tutorials (http://www.jamierumbelow.net/category/tutorials ) and browse the forums - i'm sure you are bound to find something.

Had a quick look, looks interesting... Would you know any (new!!!) tutorials on db connection with CI? Thanks again Fred

Hey fred, Elliot Haughin did some more recent tutorials that breifly cover db connection, but actually, that is a gap that needs to be filled! Did you manage to get your script working? Jamie
