It means the cPanel monitor is broken. The database server is working fine. The problem is actually that localhost no longer points to 127.0.0.1 like it should. Change your script's database server to 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost and see if it works. If it does not, check in PHPMyAdmin and verify that the database exists and has content like it should. If it's empty or missing, let me know its name so I can escalate this for you.1 point

127.0.0.1 will always work so it's a safe way to make sure this doesn't happen again. I'm unsure why localhost isn't working. It's properly configured in the hosts file and the operating system itself resolves localhost to 127.0.0.1 properly. For some reason MySQL doesn't know what to do with localhost anymore. The crash must have conked Johnny on the head just right and he has a mild concussion.1 point

Can you try changing localhost to '127.0.0.1' ?1 point

I did some further testing and it seems like host '127.0.0.1' is working, but host 'localhost' is not. Try changing to 127.0.0.1 and let us know if it works.1 point
