Installing went fine but…

  • Everything seemed to go well, and then, as soon as I clicked login, it took me to the log-in page to log in as admin and the password, but at the top left, it had this:
    SQL/DB Error:
    [Lost connection to MySQL server during query]
    SELECT option_name, option_value FROM wp_options
    Then I logged in anyway as admin, and got this:

    Can someone tell me WHAT to change? What about permissions – are they supposed to be changed? What is the “no connection to the database?”

  • I’d guess that it did precisely what it said – the connection to the db was broken. (No idea how this happens though).
    Have you tried closing that window in your browser, then trying to get to the /wp-login.php address again ?

    I went to https://www.jackiefg.com/blog/wp-login.php after your suggestion, and the page showed up fine, but once again, once I logged in, I got the same message as above.
    I’m wondering where (it seemed to me in the old version of WP) you put in your site name – like jackiefg.com. All I put in was the database stuff in the wpconfig file, but there was no place to put my site in. Is there another file I should be configuring?

    Your blog shows up fine – it’s the default install.
    If I go to the login address, I also see that error.
    Is there anyway you can get your mySQL checked to see if it is working okay ?

    I would contact your hosting provider again and if they still don’t help switch to a different provider. Someone was giving out free hosting accounts on the Misc forum a little while ago.

    I just switched providers cuz my last one was pathetically slow. I don’t think I can go through that again. It’s the reason why right now I’m forced to use MT – I’m working and working at getting the Word Press back up and running here.

    Well, the error it’s returning is a MySQL database error that has nothing to do with WordPress except WP happens to be accessing the MySQL database when this error happens. This would happen with any script you used, PHP or Perl or whatever, that accessed mysql.
    Visiting your blog now, it looks just fine. I’m guessing the error is sporadic.
