  Hello, I’m an assistant admin for lpboatclub.org. This is a highly trafficked site and I need help pretty urgently as I can’t get a hold of our webmaster. The website cannot currently be visited—any attempt to view any of its pages results the message: “Error establishing a database connection”.

  Please advise, thanks.

  lpboatclub.org is using WordPress.org and it’s hosted on a server other than WordPress.com.

  This forum supports WordPress.com hosted sites only. You can get some help for your issue in the support forums at https://wordpress.org/support/

  WordPress.com and self-hosted WordPress.org are different which can be confusing. You can learn the difference between both at https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
