The answer is right there on your site...

There might be a database connection problem that prevent this website to work properly. This can be caused by wrong db configuration in the admin side (file: includes/pixelpost.php) or the MySQL server might not reponding to Pixelpost's requests. Make sure that you have followed installation procedure in setting up database connection for Pixelpost.

Emphasis added by me.

Make sure your mySQL configuration is correct.

You need to make sure your database path, username and password are set correctly in the includes/pixelpost.php file.

I think there are instructions here:
