Wordpress Database

grtech

New Pleskian
Hello All,

We recently installed Plesk 12 in our environment and we initially had the intention of using MS SQL as opposed to MySQL that the Plesk install provides, as related to installing a Wordpress site.

We have connected the MS SQL database to "Database Servers" under "Tools and Settings" but we are unable to configure our Wordpress to use this database. It sticks to its default "localhost:3306"; being the MySQL database installed by Plesk.

Is there a way to use the MS SQL database we created with the Wordpress app or not?

Could someone answer this please?

Thanks.
 
I can say that Wordpress Tollkit does not support MSSQL databases. You should use MySQL for correct operation.
