Also tried that, and didn't find any possible fixes. Ultimately I started a new droplet from a backup snapshot, and implemented SFTP instead. Remote file editing is working smoothly with this method. Thanks @Gideon So for your suggestions.

Thanks for your suggestion. I just restarted the droplet and that didn't solve the issue unfortunately. I just checked the status for MySQL and it says: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) Then I tried to reinstall MySQL and it's still showing that it fails to start. Perhaps related?

I just double checked site/config.php, and changed the password back to match dbPass. Error is still the same!

Another reason could be that I just changed some passwords for the droplet. How do I update this in the ProcessWire files?

Hi! Looking for help debugging what went wrong. I have a ProcessWire site hosting remotely on a DigitalOcean droplet, and I wanted to open and edit some files on my local machine. I use Sublime so I installed rsub following these instructions. Then I opened up my site at its usual domain and I see the following error: Oops… Error: Exception: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory (in wire/core/WireDatabasePDO.php line 509) #0 wire/core/WireDatabasePDO.php (509): PDO->__construct() #1 wire/core/WireDatabasePDO.php (872): WireDatabasePDO->pdoWriter() #2 wire/core/WireSaveableItems.php (219): WireDatabasePDO->prepare() #3 wire/core/Wire.php (416): WireSaveableItems->___load() #4 wire/core/WireHooks.php (968): Wire->_callMethod() #5 wire/core/Wire.php (484): WireHooks->runHooks() #6 wire/core/Fields.php (285): Wire->__call() #7 wire/core/Fields.php (172): Fields->getWireArray() #8 wire/core/ProcessWire.php (625): Fields->init() #9 wire/core/ProcessWire.php (578): ProcessWire->initVar() #10 wire/core/ProcessWire.php (315): ProcessWire->load() #11 index.php (52): ProcessWire->__construct() #12 {main} This error message was shown because: site is in debug mode. ($config->debug = true; => site/config.php). Error has been logged. I'm not sure where to go from here! Any advice would be very appreciated.
