• I am in the process of changing servers.

    I goofed.

    I decided, too quickly, to use the easy installation wordpress button on the new server’s Cpanel. It asked for the Url of the blog. Installation was successful except that it issued me a new Admin and wordpress login – oops!

    Now, the server cannot find the database.

    I think this is because the username and password information in my wp-config.php file is different than the new one issued by the new installation, so the database and WP cant communicate…

    So, I deleted the new WP install on the new server.

    And, now the transfer is complete from my old server, and I need to know how to get out of this mess. I think it has to do with the WP side, and needing to get my old admin login to come back there that matches with my wp-config.php file or ?

    The actual error is “cannot connect to database” – and its a login issue.

    Thanks – see if I hit the easy button again !
