If I look in the log files I see;

[Mon Jan 09 13:02:09.836364 2017] [:error] [pid 12834] [client 69.162.124.235:49818] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘DB_USER’ (T_STRING) in /home/public/sites/www.servicemanagerdag.nl/wp-config.php on line 26, referer: https://www.servicemanagerdag.nl/

This suggest that the DB_USER is not correct. But I don’t see anything wrong. The user I created is SMD2017 and this is also what I use. If I change it to the dbm user, issue is still the same.

Sorry posted to fast. I think the issue is not with connecting with the DB itself but with the DB host. How can I check if I can connect with the host?

Hi,
In PHPMyadmin after the import I see two DB instances. The one I created (SMD2017) and the one PHPMyadmin created after the import. What I do is click on the SMD2017 instance and select import. So it should import in the SMD2017 DB but instead it creates another DB named md78753db361567. The SMD2017 instance is empty and the md78753db361567 is filled with tables which is correct.
I changed the credentials in the config file, but not with cpuser before the user name.

Hi Vladinka,
Thanks for you respons. I use PHPmyadmin to manage the database. This is supported by the hosting firm. If I do what you describe;
– Create a new database
– Import the SQL file into the new database etc.
Then the SQL file is not imported but a new database is automaticlly created. So to be precise;
– I created a DB named SMD2017
– Imported the SQL file which I exported from the old environment and has the name md78753db361567.
– Now PHPadmin creates a new database instance named md78753db361567
And this results in the same, no connection to DB.

Any suggestions?
