 * My blog at <PepinHazan.com/blogs> is hosted by Bluehost.com. I haven’t edited
   any configuration files lately. I installed Coppermine Photo Gallery and PunBB
   today. However, they are on a separate MySQL database than WordPress. When I 
   tried to post something today, I got this error:
 * “Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output 
   started at /home/pepinhaz/public_html/blogs/wp-content/themes/landzilla-1_2/index.
   php:9) in /home/pepinhaz/public_html/blogs/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 304
   
   WordPress Error establishing a database connection 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 localhost. This could mean your host’s
   database server is down.”
 * I emailed Bluehost a few minutes ago, but until they respond, are there any suggestions
   on how to fix this problem? (as far as I know, all of my files are correctly 
   configured)
 *  * 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?
 * If you’re unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host.
   If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums.

 * Your database server was temporarily down. If its still down, contact your host
   and inform them that its down.
