gaydoe, can you tell me how you delete the cache of the home page? And how did you change the supercache settings to not cache the home page / front page?

I started with a clean slate again. This time I I got the database to connect. However, it STILL will not take my login and password so I can get into the admin area. No error message. It just tells me unauthorized access after a few times of entering my login and password. I did notice that in myPHPAdmin that my password has changed to something different in the MD5 format…any suggestions?

FYI: A MySQL database check says the database is fine. So, it’s not corrupted.

I did this. It told me my site does not have a wp_config.php and took me through a process to put in the database information to create one. when I keyed in the correct data it gives me this:

Error establishing a database connection
This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host’s database server is down.

Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
Are you sure that the database server is running?

I have keyed in the info from the backup of the config file so that everything matches the database. . . didn’t work, same error.

No matter what I key in to the config file, I get this error.

So, I started over with a clean slate again. This time, I did a 5 minute install through cpanel. It set up a new database automatically. I am still getting the “error establishing database connection.” I am at a total loss here. . . any other suggestions.

W.P. Ginfo: Reinstalling wordpress with all the plugins disabled did not work either. It still will not accept a login and password – no matter what I change the login and passward to. Anyone have any other ideas?
