  @ben I used that hosting before, Elgg doesn't work on free accounts. Contact their tech support, I think they have an auto installer.

Hi, This morning I decided to change the password of mysql database, simply because I don't remember what my old password is. However, after doing that I found that my elgg site can't access the database, of course. But I don't know how to edit...

  The database access details are stored in engine/settings.php. Just change the mysql password and it should work again.

  It seems to me that when there is nothing to display, I get this problem. When I post something to blog, the corresponding error is gone.

  If you are occasionally seeing this error, it means that your database server cannot handle many connections. Is it a shared server that is overloaded?

  Don't know anything about a site access plugin, but you can manually create users on the User Administration page.
