    Followed instructions: https://raspberrytips.com/wordpress-on-raspberry-pi/

    Get this error:

    Cannot select database

    The database server could be connected to (which means your username and password is okay) but the database could not be selected.

    • Are you sure it exists?
    • Does the user wordpress have permission to use the database?
    • On some systems the name of your database is prefixed with your username, so it would be like username_. Could that be the problem?

    If you do not know how to set up a database you should contact your host. If all else fails you may find help at the WordPress support forums.

    Yes, and re-installed everything from scratch.

    That is not what is written there as tips on the database.
