Connection Problems
Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.
Checked w/ server guys... it's not busy ~ and the non-SMF portion of my website is fully functional.
Any idea why I can't connect to the database? I haven't made any changes ~ and since I can't actually see the forum (from the admin side) ~ I have no idea how to proceed.

(I am running 2.0 ~~~~ I think. Ican't access the forum, so I can't say for certain).

Definitely it is because of the connection between the database. You might want to check the details given in Settings.php, make sure you've given a valid pass, db and user.
Who is your host?
Please, let's stay in one topic OK. :)
After years of smooth running, I get this error: (https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=558097.0)
