The following error message appeared on my site today and no changes have been made lately:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: message_die() in /var/www/html/db/db.php on line 88

Could this mean the site has been hacked or is it a normal error message? What can cause this if I have not made any changes lately?

$db = new sql_db($dbhost, $dbuname, $dbpass, $dbname, false);
if(!$db->db_connect_id) {
    die("<br><br><center><img src=images/logo.gif><br><br><b>There seems to be a problem with the MySQL server, sorry for the inconvenience.<br><br>We should be back shortly.</center></b>");
}



these are lines 86-89 of db.php .... im pretty sure these are the lines he's asking about .. just a guess but it looks like a problem with your host

Yes that is what I see also in my local site copy of db.php

My confusion is that the message below is not printed, only the php error saying undefined function... I can log into PHPMyAdmin fine.

I would expect that if it could not connect to the sql database then the "There seems to be a problem with the MySQL server, sorry for the inconvenience.<br><br>We should be back shortly" message would appear so I started to wonder if I had been hacked some how.
