 * I have an error “Error Establishing a Database Connection” when publish new post
   and Jetpack was activated.
 * I’m trying to publish new post when Jetpack deactivated and no errors.
 * Also I’m showing the same error again when deactivated all plugins and set default
   WordPress theme, and just active Jetpack and then publish new post.

 * Thanks for the link! Could you please try uninstalling and reinstalling the Jetpack
   plugin from your Dashboard? To do so, follow these steps:
 * 1. Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins
    2. Deactivate Jetpack 3. Click the“
   Delete” link under Jetpack and follow the prompts to confirm 4. Install the Jetpack
   plugin once again 5. Connect Jetpack
 * Following these steps will clear out existing settings, and allow you to attempt
   a fresh connection. Please let me know when you’ve done the above, and I’ll check
   your connection once again from our end!

 * Can you temporarily disable CloudFlare and try to connect Jetpack again and see
   if you have the same issue? If it works, please review this page to ensure you
   have CloudFlare and Jetpack working together properly:

 * This may happen if your database can’t handle the resources needed to publish
   a post. Do you use any other plugins that may perform actions when hitting the
   Publish button? If so, could you review that list of plugins, and make sure you
   only keep the plugins you’re actively using?
 * Let us know how it goes.
