    Hello,
    I just got done upgrading my site to the latest version of php. At the same time, I was trying to update to the latest version of WordPress. When I try to go to my dashboard, I’m now getting the following error message:

    “Can’t select database
    We were able to connect to the database server (which means your username and password is okay) but not able to select the [mydatabase] database.

    Are you sure it exists?
    Does the user [mydatabase] have permission to use the [mydatabase] database?
    On some systems the name of your database is prefixed with your username, so it would be like username_[mydatabase]. Could that be the problem?”

    I inserted all of the information as I had done so before on my old site and exactly as it’s listed in 1&1. I don’t think this is a problem with the host. Can anyone offer me any advice as to how to fix this? Thank you very much!
