Error establishing connection but credentials OK (4 posts)

    Hello,

    I just installed a WP blog on a server I run and I'm having trouble with the db.

    WP is giving me the famous Error establishing connection message but when I connect to my db with the MySQL CLI or with mysql_connect() on a test php file, everything works great.

    Does someone have an idea what I should look for?

    Thanks a lot.

    Ok so I disabled the multisite and the site went up.

    I guess there's something going wrong with the multisite, I checked the WP support about it but haven't found anything useful for now.

    If you have an idea...
