Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Error in Database ConnectionMoshu,
I never said I was a webmaster. This is my first time using WordPress. And it’s unfortunate that I am just receiving your message that you sent me 2 days ago. Maybe, I would not have been rambling on, as you suggest. I utilized the link that MichaelH provided me (thank you) as I stated previously, but I guess those options did not work since I guess GoDaddy provided me with my self-hosted blog.
This forum is to help your users; no question is idiotic. GoDaddy has not been helpful and frankly is unknowledgeable, that’s why I used this support forum. I am just not as educated as you, but I have been trying to educate myself. I thank you for your assistance anyway.

In reply to: Error in Database ConnectionMoshu – If you were here now, I would kiss you. Thank you. I have discovered that I can not log into my account by using the link:
http://wordpress.com/wp-login.php
I can only login by using: http://www.sistahspursuit.com/sistahssoundoff/wp-login.php
Is this because my blog is hosted by GoDaddy?Also, would you happen to know how I can change my WordPress installation password? Even though I am able to change my MySQL database password, update the wp-config file, and update my password via http://www.sistahspursuit.com/sistahssoundoff/wp-login.php (each having the same password), when visitors try to access my blog, this message appears “The site database appears to be down”.
Thank you for your help!

In reply to: Error in Database ConnectionAlso – Just tried to login again with my WordPress Username and Password and this message pops up (I didn’t even touch these files):

In reply to: Error in Database ConnectionOk –
I tried some of the examples in the Resetting your Password link, but it has not worked. Maybe because there are no options for Version 2.2.1 – I don’t know. Being that I am not too familiar with phpMyAdmin, with all the warnings of possibly losing your data, I do not want to use that option.
I changed my MySQL database password back to its original password, so that it may be the same as the Admin password that I created during the WordPress installation. I also updated the wp-config file with the original database password. With these changes, users are now able to access my WordPress blog.
However, when I try to login as the Administrator, WordPress does not remember my Username or Password, or Email address anymore. It states that they are invalid. And on top of the WordPress login page this is posted:
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/s/i/s/sistahs/html/sistahssoundoff/wp-config.php:47) in /home/content/s/i/s/sistahs/html/sistahssoundoff/wp-login.php on line 12
I don’t know what this means. I don’t know what’s going on anymore. All I know is that I need some help. It doesn’t help that users are able to access my blog but I can’t do anything with it.
Please Help!

In reply to: Error in Database ConnectionThe only way to access my blog is to login through my website. The blog is http://www.sistahspursuit.com/sistahssoundoff/.
When I login through my website, it states “The site database appears to be down”. I was told by GoDaddy that the password I have for MySQL Database that was created for my WordPress blog (visitors register through my website to access the blog) has to be the same as the Admin password I created during the installation of WordPress. This password is the same password I was able to use to login as an admininstrator for my WordPress blog (If you go to wordpress.com and click on the login button, you are directed to http://wordpress.com/wp-login.php).
Please let me know if there are any WordPress files I can update to change my Admin password. I already updated the file wp-config.php which defines MySQL username and password, with my new database password.
As of now, I can not access my WordPress account with my old or new password, and visitors that sign in through my website can not access the blog either.
Thanks for your help.
