 * Not sure whether we have any solution on internet at present to this issue. I
   believe, It is certainly not DB user and access issue based on above forum threads.

 * Hola a me me aparece esto. Como lo soluciono?
 * Error al establecer una conexión de base de datos
    Esto significa que la información
   de nombre de usuario y contraseña en su wp-config.phparchivo es incorrecta o 
   no podemos contactar al servidor de la base de datos en localhost. Esto podría
   significar que el servidor de la base de datos de su host está caído.
 * ¿Estás seguro de que tienes el nombre de usuario y la contraseña correctos?
    ¿
   Estás seguro de haber escrito el nombre de host correcto? ¿Estás seguro de que
   el servidor de la base de datos se está ejecutando? Si no está seguro de lo que
   significan estos términos, probablemente deba contactar a su anfitrión. Si aún
   necesita ayuda, siempre puede visitar los foros de soporte de WordPress .

 * What you can do, is to set the correct permission for your site files.
 * chown -R root:apache myblog
    chmod -R 774 myblog
 * That’s it. Open your blog on the URL and follow through the installation process.
   Once it’s done. I recommend come back and change the permission for security 
   reasons.
 * chmod -R 754 myblog
