Posts don't Publish – Sys Admin Password Problems

I believe it may be referring to the database login that is used in your wp-config.php. That needs to match what your database is expecting. However, if that were the case, I would think that you would not be able to connect at all.

Your wp-config file will have something that looks like this (obviously I have inserted non-identifying database information):

// ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', '528202_yourDBname');

/** MySQL database username */
define('DB_USER', '528202_yourDBUserName');

/** MySQL database password */
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'yourpasswordH!@');

/** MySQL hostname */
define('DB_HOST', 'mysql50-25.wc2.dfw1.somehost.com');

You set up a database and a username when you created the installation. Depending on your servers, the MySQL hostname may be ‘localhost’ or it may have a specific machine name, like in the example above.

If you don’t know this information, you will need to contact your hosting company.
