I haven’t touched my wordpress site in weeks and its been working fine. Now when I visit it I get: Error establishing a database connection
On both the site itself and the admin page of the site. Literally nothing has changed. My database credentials are exactly the same and are correct in the wp-config.php file
I have a 1gb droplet – should I add swap? Is that going to significantly decrease performance?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
