Install errors

getting the same error others had at install
is there a work around for this ?
Are you sure you've entered the correct database host name? Maybe you mistyped it? The database reported: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2005] Unknown MySQL server host 'mysql2.xxxxxxxx.com' (1)
no typos.

I also googled, but could only find the following urls:
http://www.wolfcms.org/forum/topic1231.html
and
http://www.wolfcms.org/forum/topic1296.html (see answer 9, it's interesting to make a test file and see what comes up)
Seems to me it's in the "mysql2." part.
Hope it helps
There was an error rendering this rich post.
I do have seven other php/mysql driven apps running successfully using same named databases/hosts.
will re post after looking at .htaccess etc.
