   I keep getting this error message. I'm using cpanel and I have used the "prefix" and done everything this site suggests. Not sure what I should do now!

   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 ohym_wordpress database.

   * Are you sure it exists?
   * Does the user ohym_derrick have permission to use the ohym_wordpress database?
   * On some systems the name of your database is prefixed with your username, so it would be like username_wordpress. Could that be the problem?
