    To learn wordpress, i am currently using free hosting on http://www.000webhostapp.com

    i was updating themes and clicked on installed themes on my dashboard simultaneously (just after clicking one which took much time to change,so i clicked another theme). Suddenly i found, “error establishing data base connection”.

    I did my best for hours, checked my wp-coing.php. everything was correct. DB_host was localhost mention there.

    After few hours, i was furstated and edited my DB_Host , and deleted ‘localhost” written there

    then reloaded my site, it came back with dashboard also. (after few hours since it was down)

    again to confirm my solution, i changed db host name to again localhost. Still my website was running well. didnt found any error.

    PS; (after around half and hour of getting error, i deleted all my themes and download one theme which i was using earlier that is sydny and uploded in that theme folder)

    I think the problem was with the hosting service provider itself. I dont think i have done any significant changes.

    Can u please verify it. What u all think. pl explain , this will help me when i face this issue again in future.

    Thanks in Advance. !! ^___^

    I think the problem was with the hosting service provider itself. I dont think i have done any significant changes.

    When I saw “free” and “000webhosting” I shook my head. I think that their database server is not properly configured and crashes under load.

    Can u please explain what exactly u mean by load because i have very less content on my website, i am just trying to learn it.
    i guess u mean the load on server which is a shared hosting because it is free.

    Pl correct me.

    What I mean is that your host has a problem. You may be able to solve it by contacting them and asking them to fix the MySQL service or you may need to find a different host.
