Should the $dbhost in PHP-Nuke installation be the URL or the server name?

The $dbhost in PHP-Nuke installation should be the server name, not the URL. This is because the $dbhost variable is used to specify the hostname of the MySQL server where the PHP-Nuke database is located. Using the server name ensures that the PHP-Nuke installation can properly connect to the database server and retrieve or store data.

$dbhost = 'localhost'; // or the IP address of the MySQL server
$dbname = 'your_database_name';
$dbuser = 'your_database_username';
$dbpass = 'your_database_password';

$db = mysqli_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass, $dbname);

if (!$db) {
    die('Could not connect to the database: ' . mysqli_connect_error());
}
