    I think its sql issue, you have to include the right information about your sql database.

      I have checked sql database user information. It's alright, even contacted host gator (my host) about this problem. They are telling remove forum directory and upload again. What do you think it may solve problem?

          you must give the correct DataBase information: DBName, DBPassword, DBUserName and DBHost
          subdomain isnt the problem there...
          try again and post again if it works or not!

            I would agree with busterkeaton, check the db info first.
            Are you including the username & db name as pointed out by your host?
            Sometimes it can be username_dbname that is needed

            Secondly have you made sure the dbuser has the correct permissions to use the databasE?

              it'd be a common config issue if the db is running well.

                    You need to check your "Settings.php" file & correct the settings here.

                      The error you are receiving means exactly what it says "SMF was unable to connect to the database." Either your MySQL username, password or database name are incorrect.
