No Database Selected

I've just installed Civicrm for the first time in a Wordpress install. I installed and went through the configuration checklist but now when I try to access Civicrm via the admin menu I get the following error:

Sorry but we are not able to provide this at the moment.
DB Error: no database selected

Return to home page.

Sounds odd. You will need to look at the file /wp-content/plugins/civicrm/civicrm.settings.php and see what is set for the details for the CiviCRM database connect string and check if they are correct.

Old thread, but I'm having exactly the same problem right after a fresh install of CiviCRM!

I checked the DB settings in the file civicrm.settings.php and found that they are correct.

The DB is also populated with all the tables that were created during install of CiviCRM.

The DB is on a separate database server provided by our webhoster.

Did you find a solution for this issue?

Best, NHP

P.S.: Here is what I found in the Logfile. DB Timeout? But timeout is set to 240s by my hoster, and according to my restricted knowledge about CiviCRM, four minutes seems to be far beyond what is normal even in the first run…

Thanks for any help on that!

This Thread seems to be much the same as http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,33417.msg141823.html#msg141823, but there's no solution in the other thread either…

Am I missing something?

My first answer is the same as on the other post--ask your host if they can help. The issue could be too many MySQL connections.
