 * Error establishing a database connection
    This either means that the username
   and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t 
   contact the database server at [% mysql.wp.sqlhost %]. This could mean your host’s
   database server is down.
 * Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
    Are you sure that you
   have typed the correct hostname? Are you sure that the database server is running?
   If you’re unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host.
   If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums. —————————
   It was working fine but when I tried to login it gave me the error message —>
   Database is out of date. Please upgrade.
 * When I tried to upgrade it gave me an error so I removed all files and started
   again but now honestly I am lost.
 * Could you please advice? Help?

 * You’ll have to tell us what versions of WordPress you were using and/or upgrading
   to.
