The Curious Case of the Missing Paper Round

Last week I noticed something peculiar- The Paper Round’s raw coverage (which was presented in the form of a wiki to allow for interested parties to add their views) had vanished.

If I go to the Paper Round front page now I get

MyWiki has a problem

Sorry! This site is experiencing technical difficulties.

Try waiting a few minutes and reloading.

(Can’t contact the database server: Access denied for user ‘smcgarr_i909mwi’@'localhost’ (using password: YES) (localhost))

I don’t know if this is the result of something I have done, or something that has been done to us. I do know that it has happened in the last few weeks, as I accessed it recently. I’ve checked, and the database is still there.

If anyone has any ideas on getting the goodies back online, they would be very welcome.

  1. Your host may have had the database server off line for a moment to do backups or an upgrade. check with them would be my first suggestion.
