Thanks for the answer. I tryed this but the result is still daily views and not all (total count) the views.

icraftzone: Wow, thanks, now it works!

I guess this works because there already is a user named root in the database, but why doesnt this work (like it did on the old PC) with a user that I create manually? By the way, isnt this a security issue?

I still cannot install WordPress locally. Here is more informastion about the situation.

I am using Windows 7. I can see in the XAAMP Control Panel that the web server and the database is running. The Control Panel tells med that the database is using the port number 3306, but this line in wp-config.php does not work:

define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘127.0.0.1:3306’);

What is stopping WordPress from contacting the database? Any ideas?

Hi, thanks for the tips, and sorry about lack of information in my original post.

I am running a PC with XAMPP

LebCit: I already tryed all the tips from this site, but still getting error.

The strange thing is I have a similar installation on another PC, and there this works fine. I actually tryed to backup wordpress from that PC, and restore the same installation on the other PC, but that did not work.

So the theory is that there is nothing wrong with the wordpress-configuration, but something is wrong on the other PC. But what? What could block the connection between MySQL and WordPress, other than misconfigured wp-config.php and misconfigured database?

Actually I already have a widget in the theme (pilcrow) I am using, that does create dynamic lists. Now the question is, is it possable to put a widget in a page or a post?

Wow, “suddenly” my site is working again, at least at the moment, and it seems that the problem is solved “by itself” – I didnt do anything to solve it.

Anyone have any thories as to what might have been the problem?

I am having the same problem with my site https://www.dataporten.net/

Sorry, I dont have a solution, yet.

The problem startet today, but the connect problem is not all the time, just in every other attempt. Same problem in Firefox and Chrome. I have cleaned my bowsers with ccleaner, so the problem is probably not local.

I thought the problem might be too many plugins (I only have 4 activated), but in my case I deactivated one of the plugins, but that didnt help.

Can the error be in the new WordPres 3.7.1 update?

Anyone else with the same problem?

You are absolutely right, thank you. I dont know why, but I turned off the Allow option in Discussion settings. But it seems, at the moment, that the problem sticks to older posts. New post are now back to normal, but I might have to publish older posts as brand new post, in order to corrrect the problem. Actually I tryied that, and it worked. Thanks again ??
