 * When we do a new download this is added to the downloads database in WP Admin
   however when you go to that page you get an error message ‘Download does not 
   exist!’
 * I have noticed just before the download completed there is this error message
   at the bottom of the page.
 * Warning: mysql_real_escape_string(): Can’t connect to local MySQL server through
   socket ‘/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock’ (2) in /home/content/n3pnexwpnas01_data02/

 * Hey [@urteamdev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/urteamdev/),
 * Thank you for sharing the details. The issue seems like there is a connection
   problem with your database. Are you able to create a post or page without seeing
   the same error?
