 * Hello,
 * I just updgraded to the latest wordpress and now my blog is inaccessible. I can’t
   even bring up the dashboard or blog itself. It is coming up with a database error.
   Any idea how to fix it?

 * Many thanks
    Jamie

 * Hello!
 * Everything looks fine here. The blog appears fine, the /wp-admin/ page too. Haven’t
   seen any errors.
 * Try a hard refresh (CTRL-F5) on your browser.

 * It keeps cutting out and disappearing. Jetpack support are emailing me each time
   it goes off and comes back online. But it’s getting quite frustrating!

 * If the database is coming and going, it may be a hosting issue. How are you hosting
   the site?

 * I use site5, I’ve logged in there and it all seems fine. Maybe it is just server
   glitches?

 * Put in a ticket and ask them to check if there have been intermittent MySQL issues.

 * If it says **Error establishing database connection** then that most likely is
   a server error that needs to be handled by your host.
