Sudden MySQL Database Error, for no reason

[kh99]

I know very little about MySQL admin, but looking up error 1044 it looks like it's a database access control issue rather than a user/password thing (i.e. user exists and password is good, but the user isn't allowed the access (privileges) it needs to do what it's trying to do).

Your error message doesn't have the part about exactly what it's trying to do (sometimes there's a file/line number) - I guess you might want to figure that out before playing around with the access control in case it's actually trying to do something it shouldn't be doing. ETA: Maybe the "cannot use database" means it was trying to do a mysql_select_db()?.

You might also figure out something by googling "mysql error 1044" or something like that.
