My website is showing database connection error

Question

my website has been down since last Sunday (01/10/2023). I have tried restarting Lightsail Instance but not working. Nothing has been changed by me because I am not a developer so I do not know more about it. By searching on the internet I have tried to check the cause but I was unable to find it. I just found that Mariadb is not working and not restarting.
