   OK should be simple right? Worked when I did it locally using MAMP and all was fine, then going live uploaded and .... nothing just the 'ERROR: Could not establish a database connection' message.
   WP is installed in the main directory and bb press is in lalala.com/forum
   I've gone over the wp-config files and they are the same, any ideas guys?

   // ** MySQL settings for BB** //
   define( 'BBDB_NAME', 'lalalala_live' );
   define( 'BBDB_USER', 'barry' );
   define( 'BBDB_PASSWORD', '****' );
   define( 'BBDB_HOST', 'localhost', '0.0.0.0' );
   define( 'BBDB_CHARSET', 'utf8' );
   define( 'BBDB_COLLATE', '' );
   $bb_table_prefix = 'bb_';

   // ** MySQL settings for wordpress ** //
   define('WP_CACHE', true); //Added by WP-Cache Manager
   define('DB_NAME', 'lalalala_live'); // The name of the database
   define('DB_USER', 'barry'); // Your MySQL username
   define('DB_PASSWORD', '****'); // ...and password
   define('DB_HOST', '0.0.0.0'); // 99% chance you won't need to change this value
   define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
   define('DB_COLLATE', '');
   $table_prefix = 'wp_';
