Blog Can Not Be Accessed

  • The blog https://tlcoffeywrites.com is down. I have been in contact with my web host and they are trying to figure out what has happened. It is confusing because another blog hosted on the same server is up and running fine.

    The blog is not accessible from any angle. Even site preview on the server only shows a minimal home page and clicking any links brings up and error page. We know the server is up so the problem is within wordpress. The only possible cause I can think of is that the template (Skirmish) being used had not been updated in like two+ years. I had just finished redoing the other site which had used the Skirmish template. How do I get into the site?

    This is the error message:
    Error establishing a database connection

    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.

    Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
    Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
    Are you sure that 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.

    I went into the server side and saw that there was something dated 12-27-13 on the index.php file. I have not been able to do anything with this blog since maybe September/October so this confuses me. I opened the file and it had a bunch of code ending with this. I don’t know what this is:

    ?><?php
    // Silence is golden.
    ?>
