I use Wordpress for my site (mccp.org) and it was running perfectly until yesterday. When I go out to the site I get an error message: "Error establishing a database connection."
When I go to edit the site, I get this suggestion from Wordpress:
"This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can't contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host's database server is down."
I don't know a whole lot about these databases, so I have no idea what the problem might be. I do know that I haven't changed any database-related settings from the time the site was working to the time it went down. What do I need to do to restore my site?
