# Database Problem after Network Activation

 * I ran through the Network Activation process based on the instructions on my 
   wordpress site. When I modified the .htacess and wp-config files, I cut and pasted
   the code from my wordpress site to avoid errors. Having done that, I now get 
   an error when I try to go to the site: “Error establishing a database connection.”
   When I try to go the admin page (/wp-admin), I get the following message: “One
   or more database tables are unavailable. The database may need to be repaired.”
   Can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong?
