# MySQL Connection Problems?

 * Just installed Hemingway last night and a few hours ago I started having database
   connection errors.
 * I ran myisamchk several times and all is well there. I use Yahoo as a server 
   and they have had problems in the past, so it may very well be them. But I wondered
   if the theme could be doing it.
 * Trying to connect gives Cannot Connect error, but trying three or four times 
   in quick succession resolves the problem. For the moment. It then recurs.
 * My site: [http://wmbriggs.com](http://wmbriggs.com)
 * Did anybody else have difficulties?

 * I think it seems unlikely that a database connection error would have been caused
   by the Hemingway theme.

 * You’re right, designsimply.
 * I used to run Weaver II and when I switched to Hemingway, which I love, Weaver
   II left a Plugin (yes, a Plugin) which I forgot about deleting. It was trying
   to call to the DB and causing intermittent problems.
 * This makes me an idiot for not checking the Plugins first!
 * And again: love the Hemingway theme!
