"Could not update" + permission error

• Permissions are not set up correctly. Repeat step 4.

"Access denied for user 'mysqluser'@'123.12.31.123' (using password: YES)"

• You are using a MySQL user that doesn't has access. This is caused by wrong password, not whitelisted IP or insufficient permissions to the database.

"Servers" tab doesn't show status of my servers

• Make sure that the socket extension is enabled and that UPD connection to your server are allowed. Ask your hoster if you don't know what to do.
