php - unable to connect mysql db with this code -


$hostname='example.com'; $username='someuser'; $password='password'; $dbname='adatabase'; $usertable='my_table';  mysql_connect($hostname,$username,$password); @mysql_select_db($dbname) or die( "unable select database"); 

i'm using read-only username here. when test script, error "unable select database".

any clue?

don't use fixed strings die() message...they're useless diagnosis. well, don't supress errors @.

mysql_connect($hostname,$username,$password) or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db($dbname) or die(mysql_error()); 

using you'll exact reason things failing.
