I'm a beginner and I'm not sure how to fix this Wordpress connection issue with the Mysql database.
The error occurs after I reset the mysql root password, the Site crashed and prints the message: "Error establishing a connection to the database"

Search for the wp-config.php
file in the root directory of your WordPress site and change the access credentials of the database. It should look something like this.
/** Nome do banco de dados para o WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', 'u694443746_aujev');
/** Nome do usuário */
define('DB_USER', 'u694443746_vaven');
/** Senha */
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'zuWupEXEdu');
/** MySQL hostname */
define('DB_HOST', 'mysql');
/** Codificação utilizada na criação de tabelas. */
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
/** O tipo de agrupamento do banco de dados. Não mude em caso de dúvida. */
define('DB_COLLATE', '');
