Error Message

Cannot select database
The database server could be connected to (which means your username and password is okay) but the if0_42987634_wp366 database could not be selected.

Are you sure it exists?
Does the user 42987634_2 have permission to use the if0_42987634_wp366 database?
On some systems the name of your database is prefixed with your username, so it would be like username_if0_42987634_wp366. Could that be the problem?
If you do not know how to set up a database you should contact your host. If all else fails you may find help at the WordPress support forums.

Other Information

My MySQL database deleted itself overnight.
I installed Wordpress through Softaculous yesterday, but now the database is gone today.
How can I recover that database?

is there already a solution?

There have been a number of reports concerning databases that are missing, notably WordPress databases created with Softaculous. I don’t know what happened to them yet, but clearly something has happened, so I’ve submitted a request upstream to look into it.

Just wanted to post an update here in case you didn’t see the issue on the status page.

The issue was identified as a database permission issue. The bug has been identified and resolved, and the fix has been retroactively applied to affected websites.

This means that the databases that had disappeared were not actually lost. They have been recovered, are fully accessible, and your website should now be working again.
