[resolved] Db connection error after db import (5 posts)

    Hi all

    My WP has been running for quite some time. But then I had to change hosting servers, and thus I did an export of the db, and subsequently imported it into the new host.

    I had trouble initially, but then I realised it was me being silly for not changing the db name in wp-config.php.

    I changed it, but nothing's changed.

    I've searched this forum but came up with nothing so far.

    Appreciate any form of help....thanks in advance!

    Cheers...

    On a new host not only the DB name bt all the other parameters (user, pw, host) might be different.

    Hi Moshu

    Thanks for your response. I've checked and made sure they're correct...and they're correct. Is there anything else in any of the other pages that needs to be changed?

    Hi

    I'm afraid I had the db server name wrong all this while....my apologies for taking up the bandwidth. Thanks for all the help fellas.

    But now I have a different problem. Will start another thread if need to.

    Cheers
