Error message: Error establishing a database connection
-
The blog vanished overnight after working well for years.
Site: http://thomas-hopp.com/blog/index.php.
WP.com: Unknown
Jetpack: Unknown
Correct account: Unknown -
The blog is part of my Yahoo-hosted website: http://www.thomas-hopp.com
Everything on the website works, except clicking the blog link gets the error message. Everything worked fine yesterday, 8/31/21. -
Hi there!
Sorry to hear that you’re having issues. It seems your site is using the WordPress.org software which is different from the WordPress.com sites we host here.
There are some differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org. If you aren’t sure about them, please check the following page that explains it well: WordPress.com vs WordPress.org.
In this case, you may want to reach out to your hosting service provider for help. The error message indicates that there’s a connection issue between your site and the database. As your site’s files are hosted on your hosting service provider’s servers, they have access to the files to help you.
If they refer to WordPress support, please post on the WordPress.org support forum at this link: https://wordpress.org/support/forums
Regards
