 * Hey,
 * Yesterday i started getting the database error, “Error establishing a database
   connection”. But i am not getting this error on every page or post, its happening
   on some but not all. It wont let me log into the dashboard also. When i try to
   access the dashboard i get asked to repair the database, but it doesn’t seem 
   to be working.
 * I have checked my wp-config.php file and everything seems to be correct. I have
   also tried removing some plugins, but that didnt work either.
 * My site is: [http://techunfolding.com/site](http://techunfolding.com/site)
 * Any help would be great. Thanks.

 * sure sounds like your `wp_options` table is crashing in the database
    but you
   used phpmyadmin and ran a “repair” and it didn’t help?

 * Its ok found it out. Thanks a lot samboll!
 * You were right the wp-options table needed to be repaired. Just selected the 
   table and clicked repair. Worked great.
