Hi @umairtipu ! 👋 Welcome to the Kinsta Community.

Can you please provide us the main.log file from your site? [DevKinsta - Troubleshooting - Viewing the Main Log File](https://kinsta.com/docs/devkinsta/devkinsta-troubleshooting/error-codes/#viewing-the-application-log-file)

Generally this occurs because DevKinsta couldn’t read certain information from `wp-config.php`, such as the database information. This can happen with custom `wp-config.php` setups that don’t provide the `DB_NAME` variable in that file, or for setups that move that information to a separate file.
