Can’t select database after upgrade to MariaDB 10

    After upgrading from MariaDB5 to MariaDB10 my WordPress website is down. It cannot connect to the database anymore.

    I’m running WordPress on my Synology server and have 1 database called wordpressblog.
    I have 2 instances with WP_ and GM_ ass prefix. The funny thing it the website with the WP_ prefix still works. But the other doesn’t.

    If I run the setup again it can login to the server, but cannot select the database.

    When I check with PHPmyadmin I can login and see the database with both WP_ and GM_ prefix.

    Any help?

    Hello thawizz, & welcome. Does your wp-config.php file reflect the proper table prefix?

    Thanks. It’s fixed.

    I needed to add the following line after DB_HOST:

    /** MySQL hostname */
    define(‘DB_HOST’,’localhost:/run/mysqld/mysqld10.sock’);
