 * Hi,
    my service provider was running maintenance and now I cannot seem to access
   my wordpress site.
 * [http://pixelfication.com/blog/](http://pixelfication.com/blog/)
 * could this be due to a name server change that would require a password update
   in the ‘wp-config.php’ file?
 * Any assistance greatly appreciated.

 * Check that your wp-config.php file is present and correct, and then contact your
   web host to see if **DB_HOST** has changed.
