Can’t select database
-
I’ve created a db called ‘wordpress’ in HELM and my hoster tells me that I’m able to use WP on their server. I set up config file and uploaded but get this error.
Can’t select database
We were able to connect to the database server (which means your username and password is okay) but not able to select the wordpress database.
* Are you sure it exists?
* Does the user pslwp have permission to use the wordpess database?
* On some systems the name of your database is prefixed with your username, so it would be like username_wordpress. Could that be the problem?If you don’t know how to setup a database you should contact your host. If all else fails you may find help at the WordPress Support Forums.
// ** MySQL settings ** // define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress'); // The name of the database define('DB_USER', 'pslwp'); // Your MySQL username define('DB_PASSWORD', '****'); // ...and password define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); // 99% chance you won't need to change this value define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8'); define('DB_COLLATE', '');Would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks in advance!
