It appears you have lost some important files. Please restore from a backup and we will go from there.

If you made a backup then you should know how to restore. Simply upload the files from your backup and upload the backup of your database and you should be back to your old install.

Are you sure your hosting company uses "localhost" as the MySQL server?

Ask your host for that or take a look at your old include/config.inc.php file which will contain those details.

You don't need a new domain name if you want to re-install Coppermine.
