Hi All,
I have a problem that maybe one of you can help me with. If I try to access the front end of my website, I get the maintenance message. If I try to enter the back office I am prompted for my UN & PW, but then I get a screen that only shows the penguin.
I have made sure that maintenance mode is not enabled, and I have enabled debug mode. When I look at the exeption logs, I see the following:
on 5th of Nov:
*ERROR* 2021/11/05 - 21:48:39: Link to database cannot be established:SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused at line 102 in file classes/db/DbPDO.php

This continues until:

I cannot find an awful lot of info about this error. All i can say is that it literately happened from one moment to another. I have not tried to update or anything.
If I use phpmyadmin to access the database, I can log on with the credentials provided in settings.inc.php.
Does ANYONE have any help here? I am at a loss as where to continue looking. The only thing I can think of at the moment is to try to upgrade to 1.7, but I have no idea how to do that without access to the back Office.
regards,
Dave.
