    @Wrye83 I imagine you are aware of this already, but the main page has been down with a database error for like the past 2 or 3 days.

    Both Mototuba – Dumaguete Motovlogging & Dumaguete Info both work fine for me, now and over the past few days when I have accessed the Forum via the first link, or is there another page you are referring to?

    *Edit;
    Although I am curious as to why the first link comes up as;
    Mototuba – Dumaguete Motovlogging instead of dumagueteinfo.com :o o:

    Had an outage in access to this site 2 days ago for about one hour (Error 500). After that this website worked fine again.

    I'm not getting a direct database error showing but it is acting stupid. Images are not loading on that side of the site for some reason. Seems the images have been dumped from a database. I imagine that hitting critical disk space has caused the system to dump some files.
    The first link title should not be rendering like that.
    That was during the last backup. Almost ran out of disk space. Have since added more. It shouldn't happen again.

    Currently getting huge performance issues. Ratings and postings takes more than one minute to post if even they appear at all. One time the post got posted but never shown up even after reloading the page. Then I reposted it and suddenly there was two posts.

    It is not my connection because other sites are loading well.

    The images issue...

    Index of /wp-content/uploads/2016/04

    Show a listing of images (I would shut that off) - but attempting to view an image comes up with an error.

    Original image not found or not available.

    That's a strange error. I haven't seen it before, so I imagine it's custom. If the files are actually on the server, then it's probably some sort of Apache rewrite funkiness.

    Are you sure there are files in the database? I have never know WP to store actual image binaries in the DB. I haven't touched WP in quite a while and add-on developers could do any crazy thing they like. Usually, it's just a pointer that you get in the DB.

    That will happen while I am messing about with cPanel/SQL.

    There are some odd image caching add-ons on the Wordpress side that could be doing this. Getting a bit annoyed with WP. Will have to figure out how to turn that index off.

    You are correct. The images are not stored in the database. The pointers may have been dumped/corrupted as the images are still in the file directories and can be viewed there.

    My guess is this has nothing to do with Wordpress. The directory listing looks like a normal Linux directory listing. The error is weird looking to me, but that's probably just because Apache has custom error handling setup for images.What Wordpress and the caching add-ons may be responsible for, is Apache rewrite rules in the htaccess file. If you disable the caching, then that might change the htaccess rules and fix the issue. Or there may be another add-on (or WP itself) messing with the rewrite rules. This would still be the case that WP isn't handling these images and errors (WP is just changing the Apache config). I would check the directory to see if those files exist. I'm guessing they do and that there's a rewrite rule blocking access.
