DW CS5 Unable to connect to a DB

[cycler]

I am using Apache 2.2, PHP 5.3, MySQL 5, and PHPMyAdmin. PHP works in Dreamweaver.

MySQL works at the command prompt. I can see my database in PHPMyAdmin.

My site is configured correctly.

When I open the DATABASES MySQL connection tap in DWCS5  and enter;

Connection name: name

MySQL server: localhost

User name: root

Password: root

Database: name

I get a pause and then, "A server timeout has occured."

DW doesn't want to connect to my localhost DB server.

What was the solution?

Can't rememder now but think is was operator error.

Simple mistype or didn't name the DB correctly.
