Unknown MySQL server host

[echinacea100]

This evening my forum goes Tango Uniform. When people try to connect, it returns:

Database error
The database has encountered a problem.

and what it emails me is this every time a browser is refreshed on the website:


Database error in vBulletin :

I have read some info here and think it may be something to do with my service host ( nearlyfreespeech.com ) but i cant imagine what. I set this forum up a couple years ago and the database service is only restarted once in a blue moon.

there havent been any config changes to the board other than forums added/moved/removed and the same for users.

looking back at my emails this seemed to have happened before but there were like only one or two emails about this incident prior and went away before i even noticed.



anyone concur or disagree with my thought that its prolly a temporary server issue?

lord knows what was wrong.
