Database craziness

  • Hi, I have recently moved a website for a church. Their domain name did not change, only the webhost. It is now on a server I lease as a non-managed Linux box. I have about ten WP sites on it running with no problems.
    I have moved WP sites before, but never had this problem. I have imported the sql database, changed the config file to represent that change.

    I changed DNS, including the A record,

    The front page loads okay, including a slider, (the slider however loads very slowly) the links show up on the bottom left hand corner with the correct sgacchurch.com/page, but the page errors.

    If I try to access the wp-admin page I get an error stating that the ‘insert old database name’ is down, or the config page is wrong.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    The website is https://www.sgacchurch.com/
    admin is https://www.sgacchurch.com/wp-admin

    Please help!!!!

  • Have you updated the wp-config.php file including the associated database, database username and password?

    For example see Editing wp-config.php: 

    // ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define( 'DB_NAME', 'database_name_here' );

/** MySQL database username */
define( 'DB_USER', 'username_here' );

/** MySQL database password */
define( 'DB_PASSWORD', 'password_here' );

/** MySQL hostname */
define( 'DB_HOST', 'localhost' );
