 * Hello, I transfered my contents and my database in my new server.
    Then I edited“
   wp-config.php”. I only edited those lines :
 *     ```
       efine('DB_NAME', '******');  
   
       /** Utilisateur de la base de données MySQL. */
       define('DB_USER', '******');  
   
       /** Mot de passe de la base de données MySQL. */
       define('DB_PASSWORD', '******');  
   
       /** Adresse de l'hébergement MySQL. */
       define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
       ```
   
 * “table_prefix” no changed
 * When I go on my website, an error occured : Databse error.
 * Do you know what is the problem ?
 * Thanks

 * I thin i found the problem :
    In my old database : **Jeu de caractères pour MySQL:
   UTF-8 Unicode (utf8)** In my new database : **Jeu de caractères pour MySQL: (
   utf8)**
 * But how to hcange “(utf8)” to “UTF-8 Unicode (utf8)” ?

 * No, I deleted my new database.
    So now I have my old base and my new base (empty).
   And I have to import my old database in my new database using putty.
 * So i did it :
 * `mysql --user='dbo***' --password='*******' db*** < db***.sql`
 * user : new database user name
    password : new database password then here name
   db***.sql because at the root of my server
 * But I have error : `acces denied for user : db***@localhost`

 * You need to grant the user the necessary privileges to the database.
 * You can find the necessary instructions in the MySQL documentation.
