In reply to: DB errors, is it the host or WP?I told you above what is to be checked: the privileges of the database user. Post back when you can answer to the question – does the database user have all the privileges?
Yes, you did. And the admin and I both did our damnedest to get the domain host’s interface to cough up the info, but it really *doesn’t have* that info accessible. Seriously, you should see it — its the worst interface I have used in years; possibly ever. Simply redoing the site will be much simpler 😛
Goodbye.

In reply to: DB errors, is it the host or WP?No. And I looked thoroughly. I did find the PHPMyAdmin section, but to be honest I am afraid to mess with it because it says that changes made from the interface cannot be rolled back.
I really appreciate the helpfulness of the folks here, and I am going to stop thinking about this for a while — the admin has already set it aside for now anyway.

In reply to: DB errors, is it the host or WP?If it’s 5gigawattlizard.net then it must be. But I just attempted to post again and got the errors listed below.
Please excuse my stupidity, but are you saying the profile works, or that the blog does? Because while the latter does show posts made before our current problems (and, oddly, one of my several test posts) I definitely cannot post to it, at least not from Safari or Firefox.
Also puzzling me — why was I able to post a test once, right after upgrading, but not after that?

In reply to: DB errors, is it the host or WP?Well, considering that our blogsite is still down, I do rather wish I knew more about MySQL and database foo. Call that a skillset or not, I can’t believe it wouldn’t help to know!
So WP *doesn’t* mean Whipping Post? White People? Weird Planets? 😉

In reply to: DB errors, is it the host or WP?Ouch! Sorry. My skillset just doesn’t happen to include DBA or WP… I’m doing the best I can to help my admin figure this all out.

In reply to: DB errors, is it the host or WP?It seems the database user doesn’t have all the required privileges. In order to work properly the DB user need “ALL” privileges in the database.
Hmm… any reason the admin might not have ALL the privileges?

In reply to: MySQL errors — no, we didn’t upgrade or add pluginsAs you can see from mctrlsys’ post, the MySQL errors have now been taken care of — the reason I didn’t post any of the errors was because they were wildly divergent — if I posted the same data twice, I’d get a wholly different set and number of errors than I did the last time.
So what still remains a problem is an inability to replace the dbo file and have it actually *be* replaced — it acts like we’re trying to modify the data, rather than replace it. Unfortunately we know very little about DBs, and aren’t totally sure if this is still a WP problem or now possibly one related to the domain host, 1and1.com.
