For the past hour or so, I cannot view the forums in IE, Moz or Firefox, instead I get this screen

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (111) in /www/prod/sites/mozillazine.org/forums/db/mysql4.php on line 48

Warning: mysql_error(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /www/prod/sites/mozillazine.org/forums/db/mysql4.php on line 330

phpBB : Critical Error

Could not connect to the database

Is it something on my end or theirs? I have seen this before at some other sites.

It is definetly a problem on their end with one of the servers. They have developed a database problem that needs to be repaired before things will function normally again.

It appears the problem is affecting some, but not all users so it is likely the site is hosted off of several servers and only some are experienceing this issue. Just so you know I can not get there either.

I can't either using Opera, firefox, and IE 5.5
Must be at their end. Perhaps they got it the same as Agnitum last week.
