Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/swfans/fcustom.php on line 130
I cannot connect to the database.

Got this today, couldn't get threads to load up and this came up instead. Just thought I'd make a note of it, as I have no idea what it means. :)

I also can't get this thread posted up - I've tried about ten times so far.

Ah ha, new error message whilst trying to post this thread:

Both of those errors are indicitive of the database being down at the times when you tried it. I'm not sure whats up with the host, but I have seen a lot of emails for a down databse recently.

That's what I thought it might be. Just thought I'd make a note of it. :)
