[READ] Unable to connect to MySQL server


anyone know solution ? I'm Using in VPS was work fine before!

Is your mysqld service running? Check by executing service mysqld status via ssh, assuming you're using a linux box.

root@chserv [~]# service mysqld status
mysqld: unrecognized service

Try this:

/etc/init.d/mysql restart

its work , but i think I'm under DDos , error again :/

Its your host probably that has something to tweak.

I got this thing recently, I asked my hosts to check up and it was done.
