Error Establishing Database Connection

Well, have you moved your wp installation?

Can you test if you can log in to your database? What have you done that this has happened?

You’ll need to provide more information in order for people to help!

No i have not moved my installation.

I have a smf and wordpress bridge that makes smf and wordpress use the same user login info for both wordpress and smf.

It worked for a few days and now i have this problem. I also have the same problem when i try to access my forum.

I have also tried re running the install.php file but only got this.

Error establishing a database connection

This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host’s database server is down.

-Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
-Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
-Are you sure that the database server is running?

If you’re unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host. If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums.

This cant be caused by a pluing or at least shouldnt because i have backed up and deleted the plugins but nothing was fixed. So i know it cant be plugins.

Also my wp-config.php file is correct with every database connection information.

This is not just a problem with WordPress either im also having the same problem with my smf forum.

Connection Problems
Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.
