Can’t select database | Multisite

  • I’m suddenly getting this error.

    We were able to connect to the database server (which means your username and password is okay) but not able to select the ejdkkj_main55t45gg87hjHYHTyj7gu46y435tf3 database.

    Now to make some things clear.

    – The installation is fresh.
    – The wp-config.php file is configured correct maing the correct db name.
    – I started 2 sites without any issues and they are using the correct DB name which is configured in the wp-config.php file.
    – The “ejdkkj_main55t45gg87hjHYHTyj7gu46y435tf3” db name is an old DB that i used in a previous installation that I have deleted (both installation and database).

    So with this said, I do not understand why this old database is suddenly turning up in my new wp multisite installation.There is simply no entries of it in wp-config.php. So I’m the logical guess is that the old database name ins a remnant from the old installation since i did not delete the old wordpress installation files but reused them…
    – I re-used the files from the old wordpress installation, so i did not delete them. I updated the wp-config to the new database settings etc.

    So which file could hold this old information? It is clearly not wp-config…

    Thanks in advance for answers/advise on this.

    I’ve been looking through the while installation and I cannot still figure out what is causing this to happen. There is not a single line in wp-config about the old data base and i do not know where else to look. I haven even been looking on code in the plugs – but nothing. I’m basisally feeling very frustated about this issue. Any help or comment that could point me in the right direction would be vey appreciated.
