Hi Dev's, I need some help.
I have a Digital Ocean droplet, and I was trying to install WordPress on my domain, but I am getting an error message that "Error establishing a database connection".
The tutorial I'm following How To Install WordPress with LAMP on Ubuntu 16.04
Not sure what I have done wrong. Any ideas would be helpful.

reboot your system . Works most of the time.
My specific problem was I entered a wrong password on the DB file. Check that too
Check your wp-config file at Database host settings, sometimes localhost won't just work so you can replace it with your database ip address
Thank you guys for the reply. It got fixed and completed my wp website. 💯
Btw, Sorry for the late reply. 😬
