In reply to: Error establishing a database connectionmy host is a Danish webhotel host called wannafind.dk. I log in on the site mysql8.wannafind.dk and then I enter a site which is pretty basis to look at. It says “Localhost” and “phpMyAdmin – 2.11.1” as headlines…. don’t know if this is the right word in English.
I only logged into the db to be sure about username and pw. I honestly don’t know what “plesk” or “cPanel” is…. sorry.

In reply to: Error establishing a database connectionEhhhmm. I’m afraid you lost me there. I’ve always logged into the DB with the same user and pw and so did my webmaster. there is only this one user and pw.

In reply to: Error establishing a database connectionI am sure about username and password. I didn’t create the DB myself. It was already there – or maybe my old webmaster created it. Anyhow, when I log in to the MySQL admin it says:
Server: Localhost via UNIX socket
Writing “Localhost via UNIX socket” in the file didn’t work either.

In reply to: Error establishing a database connectionFull error message:
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?
If you’re unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host. If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums.
