 * When I try to access this site: missionuganda.info
 * …I get this message: “Error establishing a database connection.”
 * Can someone look at the code of my wp-config.php file and tell me what I’m doing
   wrong?
 *     ```

        * visiting {@link http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php Editing
        * wp-config.php} Codex page. You can get the MySQL settings from your web host.
        *
        * This file is used by the wp-config.php creation script during the
        * installation. You don't have to use the web site, you can just copy this file
        * to "wp-config.php" and fill in the values.

 * Note I edited several fields so you don’t have future security issues….
 * You should probably check with your host and make sure those values are correct(
   DB_USER, DB_NAME, DB_HOST, DB_PASSWORD)
