  • What has changed - any plugin updates, WP Core updates, etc. ?

  • When I try to access the url like 'blogurl/wp-admin/network' I get "Error establishing a database connection" though I could access 'blogurl/wp-admin'

  • It sounds like the plugin tried to alter something in the database, and failed. Make sure your wp-config.php multisite settings are still in tact, and so is your .htaccess file.

  • Or that it removed you as a super administrator.

The problem was that the username of the super admin was changed and this did not reflect in other blogs of the system. The below query solved my problem,

update wp_sitemeta set `meta_value` = 'a:1:{i:0;s:6:"adminusername";}' where `meta_key` = 'site_admins'

and

update wp_sitemeta set `meta_value` = '[email protected]' where `meta_key` = 'admin_email'
