The htaccess file is the default and doesn’t force non-www (at least nothing that’s easy or plain to see). The host wasn’t set to force either. I tried settig the host (cPanel) to force www but it still didn’t work. I also tried to set it to force through the htaccess but that didn’t fix.

I was thinking that setting the host to force www would fix the issue in a round about way but it didn’t. I still can get to the network admin by adding www to the links and buttons so I was surprised that it didn’t work.

I checked the wp_options table and looked at both home and site URLs. They both had the www so I didn’t make any changes.

Both the wp_site and wp_blogs didn’t have www so I added it to both.

Now when I go to the network admin I get “Error establishing a database connection”. It doesn’t have the www in the link and if I add the www it redirects without the www and the error above comes up.
