Hi @baljinderekrocx,
You’ll most probably have to change the hostname from localhost to 127.0.0.1 in the env configuration file of your Magento application.
First, go to your Website’s DocumentRoot
cd /path/to/website
Once inside open the config file
nano app/etc/env.php
In there you’ll find an enviroment called host, change it like so
change 'host' => 'localhost' to 'host' =>'127.0.0.1'
Save the file and reload the website to see if the error is still being experienced.

Hello,
Once, can you check if the MySQL service is up and running. If it is down, you will need to restart.
service mysql start
You also may have to change the hostname from localhost to 127.0.0.1 in env configuration file in your magento root directory
Open app/etc/env.php
change 'host' => 'localhost' to 'host' =>'127.0.0.1'
Save file and retry
Keep us posted, if this worked.
Cheers, Sri Charan
