[phpesp-general] phpESP Install Problem: New to Linux, php, etc. and unable to set .ini parameters correctly

[Phyllis R. <pbr...@co...>]

I'm sure this question has been asked, but I'm unable to find a specific
example of the phpesp.ini parameter settings.  I'm sure the solution is
simple, but I don't know enough about this web environment to figure out
what changes I need to make.  When I execute the admin/index page, I =
receive
the following error:

HTTP 503 Service Unavailable
[ Connection to database failed. Please check configuration. ]=20

Following are the parameters I've set for my particular installation.

 * Here are all the configuration options.

// use http or https?
$ESPCONFIG['proto'] =3D 'http://';

// Base URL for phpESP
******** I'm sure my website address goes here somewhere, but don't know
where to specifiy it.
