Website Stopped working after 3 months in EC2

Question

the health check is okay but when I access my website it gives me these errors:

2 exception(s):
Exception #0 (Zend_Db_Adapter_Exception): SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused
Exception #1 (PDOException): SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused

how can I solve this?
note: it is MySQL error from a Magento build

Accepted Answer

I assume you have set up the connection information to MySQL in .env. Is the correct information set up?  
Make sure MySQL is running.  
For example, if you are running MySQL on Linux, you can check the status with the following command.  
```
sudo systemctl status mysql
```
If it is stopped, you will need to start it with the following command.  
```
sudo systemctl start mysql
```

Hi Sultan.

Where is your MySQL instance running? Is it RDS, a separate EC2 instance, or in the same EC2 instance as your application?

Thank you.
