 * Dear Sirs,
 * – I have using filezilla to paste the extracted wordpress-5.4.1.zip into my website:
   fchan.ad5.hk and
    – I have modified the wp-config.php by adding define(‘WP_ALLOW_REPAIR’,
   true); – during the process of installation, I was told that
 * > One or more database tables are unavailable. To allow WordPress to attempt 
   > to repair these tables, press the “Repair Database” button. Repairing can take
   > a while, so please be patient.
 * Please guide me how to solve the problem.
 * Thanks
 * Fion

 * Something wonky is going on bc the site says it can’t even hit the database :
   
   [http://fchan.ad5.hk/](http://fchan.ad5.hk/) Check your wp-config.php file so
   make sure the user has access to the database, and the username and password 
   are correct. If the wordpress repair doesn’t work, you can run a repair using
   phpMyAdmin : [https://www.siteground.com/tutorials/phpmyadmin/repair-optimize-database/](https://www.siteground.com/tutorials/phpmyadmin/repair-optimize-database/)
   If that doesn’t work, then start over.
