Error MySQL Can't select database

Migrating my wordpress site from a server

I am moving an old wordpress website from a hosting / server to a new server. During this process I determined the mysql server that was loaded on the destination server was not working properly. I was receiving errors everytime I tried to access a user that was configured from the MySQL Administrators interface. My website could not connect to the database I had imported from the original server. So I ended up uninstalling the server and reinstalling it with a similar version. I went from 5.5 to 5.7. So I finally got it up and running and then I discovered a new error. Yes, the error above


MySQL Error Can't Select Database

After some research and trial and error I determined that the user name did not have access to the actual database. This was not allow the migrated website to come up.
