Hi bro!
To fix this problem try those fixes :

1. Open wp-config.php, check line DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_HOST, DB_NAME. Make sure the values is same with mysql access.

2. If you use Dedicated server or VPS hosting, try to restart your mysql server by typing :
-service mysql restart
or
-service mysql start
but if you use shared hosting, ignore this step!

3. if all the previous fixes can not fix it, so it’s a server-side problem! it is not your error! so let the hosting company fix this error for you because it is their error!
contact them or give them a day or so and they will solve this error and the problem will disappear automatically.
you can also check this video for the error establishing database connection fixes

thank you for your comment.
