 * Hello,
 * I just update WordPress to 3.4.2 for my website.
    Now when I want to login to
   my dashboard I get this message: “Database Update Required WordPress has been
   updated! Before we send you on your way, we have to update your database to the
   newest version. The update process may take a little while, so please be patient.”
 * Then I have a button which says “Update WordPress Database” so I click it.
 * After this I get a new text with errors on my screen:
    “WordPress database error:[
   UPDATE command denied to user ‘U3490541’@’92.61.155.10’ for table ‘wp_options’]
   UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = ‘21707’ WHERE option_name = ‘db_version’
 * WordPress database error: [INSERT,UPDATE command denied to user ‘U3490541’@’92.61.155.10’
   for table ‘wp_options’]
    INSERT INTO wp_options (option_name, option_value, autoload)
   VALUES (‘db_upgraded’, ‘1’, ‘yes’) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE option_name = VALUES(
   option_name), option_value = VALUES(option_value), autoload = VALUES(autoload)”
 * Under this text it says
    “Update Complete Your WordPress database has been successfully
   updated!”
 * With a “Continue” button at the end.
    If I click on this button then I get back
   to the screen where it says that I have to upgrade the database…
 * I think I am in some kind of a loop and I have no idea how to get out of it.
   
   Hopefully there is somebody who knows what this problem is and how I can solve
   it.
 * Kind regards.

 * Did you backup the database before the update? If no Backup your database then
   Try access your sql and make sure the user U3490541 has grant permissions and
   run the update again.
