> > "Use" that db and then issue: > select * from db where Db='jfwiki' or Db='jokefire' order by Host;Well yeah. I used the mysql database before I issued that command. MariaDB [(none)]> use mysql Reading table information for completion of table and column names You can turn off this feature to get a quicker startup with -A Database changed Then if I run that command for some reason there's no jfwiki or jokefire entry in the db table: MariaDB [mysql]> select * from db where Db='jfwiki' or Db='jokefire' order by Host; Empty set (0.00 sec) For some reason another database I imported to do bacula backups has an entry in the db table: MariaDB [mysql]> select Host,Db from db; +-----------+--------+ | Host | Db | +-----------+--------+ | % | bacula | | localhost | bacula | +-----------+--------+ 2 rows in set (0.00 sec) However I'm thinking more along the lines of my php mysql client having an issue. Although I'm still a little stuck on why the wiki works without any problem and why neither my php script nor wordpress are able to connect to the db. It's really strange how that's happening!

> > You were doing this (looking at the mysql.db table) on your > "db.example.com" machine, correct?db.example.com is a load balanced VIP. The VIP is being handled by keepalived and HA/Proxy. There are two DB's setup in master/master replication. The two databases and two load balancers are on AWS. The web server and varnish servers are on digital ocean. I setup a grant on db1 to allow access to the database from the load balancers. And those permissions were automatically replicated over to the second database. Once I set that up I was able to mysql into the load balanced database and the media wiki started working. But the wordpress site and the test php script still couldn't access the load balanced database.
