   a database connection” I did the repair thing and got this:
 * wp_1_posts: Table ‘devatude_wrdp1.wp_1_posts’ doesn’t exist
    wp_1_comments: Table‘
   devatude_wrdp1.wp_1_comments’ doesn’t exist wp_1_links: Table ‘devatude_wrdp1.
   wp_1_links’ doesn’t exist wp_1_options: Table ‘devatude_wrdp1.wp_1_options’ doesn’t
   exist wp_1_postmeta: Table ‘devatude_wrdp1.wp_1_postmeta’ doesn’t exist wp_1_terms:
   Table ‘devatude_wrdp1.wp_1_terms’ doesn’t exist wp_1_term_taxonomy: Table ‘devatude_wrdp1.
   wp_1_term_taxonomy’ doesn’t exist wp_1_term_relationships: Table ‘devatude_wrdp1.
   wp_1_term_relationships’ doesn’t exist wp_1_commentmeta: Table ‘devatude_wrdp1.

 * Do you have a recent database backup that you can restore?

 * I did not, but finally I had to re-add the line
 * define(‘multisite’,true);
 * and re-add the database info
 * to my wp-config.php file. I don’t know what happened to it in the first place!
   I was up all night b/c I have like 20 sites there and could NOT afford to lose
   them. I am doing a backup now!
