  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 mysql3001.mochahost.com. This could mean your host’s database server is down.

  Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
  Are you sure you have typed the correct hostname?
  Are you sure the database server is running?
  If you’re unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host. If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums.

  Hi,

  It looks like your site is using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but is hosted with another webhost.

  We’re only able to provide support for WordPress websites that are hosted by us here at WordPress.com. For help with a WordPress site hosted elsewhere you’ll need to ask over at the WordPress.org forums:

  https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  Depending on the level of support that is included with your hosting plan, your webhost’s support team may also be able to assist.

  If you want to know more about the differences between WordPress.com and the open-source WordPress software you can read this article:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  what are you talking about

  Your site is not hosted here, on WordPress.com, but using the open source WordPress.org software at another hosting provider (DNC Holdings, Inc):
  https://who.is/whois/socalcoralreef.com

  For general help with the version of WordPress you’re using, you can ask the WordPress.org community over at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  The other option: you can ask the support of your hosting.

  You can read more about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com here:

  Cheers.
