I have done an extensive amount of work on one of my databases today, and I was about to back it up, when it became unresponsive.

Now when the script on the website tries to access it, it produces:

Can't connect to MySQL server on 'mysql' (4)

And when I try to log on using phpMyAdmin:

#2003 - The server is not responding

As I said, I have done an extensive amount of work today, and would hate to lose it now.

Update

New error on phpMyAdmin login screen now reads:

#2013 - Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 61

The same error appears when the website tries to run the script.

We are having a technical problem with the mysql server.
There is no data loss, we are working on it.
