Okay this is down right weird and a bit scarey. About 15 mins ago I got 6 or 7 e mails sayin from Noname saying my SMF database was down. Yes it was there but not in use. So I went into my C panel and Deleted it. Now the strange thing. I could not log into trap17 I had to reset my PW.
Could someone have been trying to hack me? I have changed all PWs

Is there anyway that someone with access to your database could get your cpanel password?

There has been a problem with the database!

That is what was in the E mail. That Datbase was only in my files and not being used.

If the server MySQL service is restarted or halted due to any reason, your CPanel will report 0 database or will not allow you to access Database. Hence, an error message popping up on your website is understandable.

In situations like this, its best to send us a support ticket and let us do the research for why you have issues rather than panicking and taking actions that can cause more damage.

Is everything fine now?
