WordPress Installation Error - Reports Database Does Not Exist, But Exists

Time:12-27

When installing WordPress, you can see that a database called WordPress has been created, with all root privileges. The language is in Portuguese because it's my native language, okay?

enter image description here

The name of the database as WordPress was written, with the correct username and password: enter image description here

But it shows the message: "Can’t select database We were able to connect to the database server (which means your username and password is okay) but not able to select the wordpress database":

enter image description here

But the wordpress database was already created in the phpMyAdmin, as shown in the first photo.

Please, what to do to fix this?

CodePudding user response:

Your phpMyAdmin screen is showing that you have decided to run your MySQL on a non-standard port of 3307 (the default is 3306). You'll need to tell WordPress to connect to the correct port.

I believe that WordPress follows the host:port syntax, so you can probably use localhost:3307 as the value for the "Database Host" value.
