Filling out the database information for my new site during installation I discovered that my db host address is too long to fit in the text field. The address of the db is:
ca5fbd4054bf849033138e0a0652c87d865d9e59.rackspaceclouddb.com
However when I go to enter it into the installation to connect to the cms database it will only fit:
ca5fbd4054bf849033138e0a0652c87d865d9e59.rackspace
Is there another way to enter the db information where I am not limited to the number of characters I use?
Please help! Thank you in advance
Database host address too long to fit in text field
Re: Database host address too long to fit in text field
Fill in the ip address of the hostname name during installation:
After installation change this in the generated config.php file to the proper hostname (and clear cache, just to be sure)nslookup ca5fbd4054bf849033138e0a0652c87d865d9e59.rackspaceclouddb.com
Server: google-public-dns-a.google.com
Address: 8.8.8.8
