In reply to: Error establishing database connectionI used the WebHostingPad database creation wizard; it says it’s there. I set up all permissions with the same user, too.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Error establishing a database connectionI’m getting the same error, but trying to use WebHostingPad.
https://support.webhostingpad.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=36
didn’t seem to help.
I’ve tried mydomain.com, https://mydomain.com, localhost, the FTP hosting IP address I got from WebHostingPad when I registered, 127.0.0.1 just to give myself some time to think, and probably a couple others I forgot. I’ve tried moving the install around as well. I’ve checked the user and dbname over and over, too.
I even tried using both WordPad and Notepad, saving it as UTF8.
The hostname I type in always shows up on the error page.
I looked, too, and couldn’t find any good posts here related, either. I am stumped.
Here’s what I have (the domain is futuregramma.net, the user is just ‘dev’, and I’ve substituted the password):
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘futuregr_wp’);/** MySQL database username */
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘futuregr_dev’);/** MySQL database password */
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘Password’);/** MySQL hostname */
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’);/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);/** The Database Collate type. Don’t change this if in doubt. */
define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);Thanks ahead of time.
