Here are the two errors I need assistance with:
Error establishing a database connection
The Following Error was from a database in localhost, and I use XAMPP to connect to WordPress. It was working completely fine the previous day, then suddenly it raised an error with localhost's database connection error. I need to fix this ASAP.

The second error was for a PHPMYAdmin connection via localhost. when i try to connect with my localhost phpmyadmin to resolve this wordpress mysql error, this error shows up. PLS Help!
