Not sure, this is what it is in the wp-config.php file:

/** MySQL hostname */
define( ‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost:/run/mysqld/mysqld10.sock’ );

The way I read that is a single variable – ‘localhost:/run/mysqld/mysqld10.sock’
“localhost” – for the host, and
“/run/mysqld/mysqld10.sock” for the port

But as I say, I’m not technical enough in this area.

Thanks Ed,

This is what it was:
/** MySQL hostname */
define( ‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost:/run/mysqld/mysqld10.sock’ );

This is what I changed it to:
/** MySQL hostname */
define( ‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost:3307’ );

Now I get an “Error establishing a database connection” error trying to load WordPress.

I’m not technical enough for this problem, but I did check phpMyAdmin and there are no rootspersona talbes there.

Next step?
