Yeah that's true. But this list tends to be rather helpful for general problems that are less specific to centos. Sometimes. :) Really seems to depend...
Incidentally I am using centos on all hosts:
#cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS Linux release 7.0.1406 (Core)
OK now that that's out of the way, for some reason I don't seem to have an entry in my db database for either jokefire or jfwiki:
MariaDB [mysql]> select * from db where Db like 'jfwiki' or Db like 'jokefire'; Empty set (0.00 sec)
Not sure why that would be the case. They're definitely there on this database server:
MariaDB [mysql]> show databases; +--------------------+ | Database | +--------------------+ | bacula | | information_schema | | jfwiki | | jokefire | | mysql | | performance_schema | +--------------------+ 6 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Any other ideas?
Thanks, Tim

Hey guys,
I'm running both a wordpress site as well as a mediawiki off of the same web servers. The mediawiki site works great! The wordpress site, meh. Not so much. I keep getting the common database connection error:
Error establishing a database connection
And as far as I can tell the settings between the mediawiki site and the wordpress site are nearly identical.

I would start by looking at the access control entries for the wp and mw dbs, (in the mysql.db table). Based on what you are trying here, there should be matching entries in that table for the "Db"s "jokefire" and "jfwiki" (e.g., for the Host as well as the various _priv fields).
select * from db where Db='jokefire' or Db='jfwiki' order by Host\g
There may be something else going on, but without knowing that the access control is as it should be there's not much value in speculating.
