I have the same problem <https://sheffnersweb.net/?p=169>
Using cPanel’s File Manager I went to
/ public_html / wp-includes /
and edited the file
wp-db.php
by adding
mysql_query(“SET NAMES ‘utf8′”);
after the line
$this->dbh = @mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpassword);
It now looks like this:
$this->dbh = @mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpassword);
mysql_query(“SET NAMES ‘utf8′”);
if (!$this->dbh) {
$this->bail(“
<h1>Error establishing a database connection</h1>
Is this right?
Trouble is, it doesn’t fix my problem.
Can someone help me?
