Hello All,
Just moved to Digital Ocean and enjoying it. I am migrating my blog from LAMP to LEMP.
I have Varnish and APC running as well on my LEMP stack.
For testing purposes, I have to find and replace URLs in my wordpress database. When I try to use the Wordpress Search and Replace plugin I am getting the following error:
The inquiry could not be implemented: Access denied for user ‘www-data’@‘localhost’ (using password: NO)
For whatever reason, the plugin is not able to access the database. I would greatly appreciate if some one could help me solve it. Thanks for your time!

Is “www-data” the name of the database user in your wp-config.php? It seems to me that the plugin is assuming that the MySQL database user and the user running the Wordpress process will have the same name.
