We have an issue with our website (Tor hidden service), we would like to hire someone to walk us through a fix.

Issue appears to be that our front end code cannot connect to the MySQL instance running on the server.
Suspect it's a permissions issue. We have SSH access to the dedicated server (CentOS) and are looking for someone who can spend a few hours with us in a chat walking us through the steps required to fix the problem. Willing to pay 75$/hr if you can get it done in a few hours.

This is the error code that appears when accessing our URL:

Once on the server, I did start mysqld but that didn't seem to solve the problem. I am able to access mysql shell on the server, the site runs on PHP.

Skills required: CentOS, PHP, mysql and linux sysadmin, possibly Tor hidden services, though I don't think the issue resides there.

Please email me directly at:

Include a GitHub profile if possible. Payment will be issued in BTC upon successful completion of the project and suitable compensation for your time will be provided given a reasonable effort even if a solution is not found.

Thanks for looking!

Henry
