• Good Morning: Over the last two days I have been running into this code Error establishing a database connection I have many WP blogs and two separate Hostgator accounts and it only appears to only happen on one account. the error seems to come and go. the sites work then they don’t then they are back up again. Does anyone have any ideas as to what might be causing this. i do not see any problems over at HG but that isn’t to say there isn’t. I appreciate all the input

  • Have you tried contacting Hostgator. There could be issues with their MySql server.

    I have not yet only because I figured if one of my accounts was working both should be. I think you may be right though because the problem is periodic. i will contact them and see what they have to say. Thanks

    Hi

    Check with these options:

    – Username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect. Please check with PHPMyAdmin and correct it or reset it. Also make necessary changes in wp-config.php file.

    – Make sure that you have typed correct host name in wp-config.php file.

    – Your hosting service provider’s database server is down. Hence, take a support from your hosting service provider.

    Thanks,

    Shane G.
