This is probably a PHP or MySQL problem, not RaQ specific.  In any case, to
help you'll need to post the MySQL connection info. from your PHP script,
the query (echo it to your browser and paste it in so we see the actual
query, not one containing PHP variables), and the appropriate lines for the
user and db from the MySQL database user and db tables.
