I still think that problem with database connect parameters. Here is a small snippet that will try to connect to database:

<?php
$conn = mysql_connect('host', 'user', 'pass') or die('Error connecting to mysql');
mysql_select_db('name') or die('Database does not exist');
print 'All OK!';
?>

Replace host, user, pass and name values. Save it as test.php and execute it. If it says All OK your connection parameters are OK. If not than you have them wrong :)

1. Make sure that your database server is up and running
2. Make sure that database connection parameters are valid (you can find them in config.php)
