    This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect** or we can’t contact the database server at h50mysql111.secureserver.net. This could mean your host’s database server is down.

    * Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
    * Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
    * Are you sure that the database server is running?

    ** I am not sure how the username/password could be incorrect..I was just in there yesterday?

    contact godaddy and ask them if server is running ok
    also, you likely need to “repair” the wp_options table in the database

    Mine said the same thing this morning, timed me out and now all of my widgets are gone. There are widgets showing that aren’t really there. I am flipping out!
