More information
This error (HTTP 500 Internal Server Error) means that the website you are visiting had a server problem which prevented the webpage from displaying.
Try:
– switching to the Twenty Eleven theme by renaming your current theme’s folder in wp-content/themes and adding “-old” to the end of the folder name using FTP or whatever file management application your host provides.
– resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin.
– re-uploading all files & folders – except the wp-content folder – from a fresh download of WordPress.
Thank you for your quick and concerned response. I can see how these might do the trick.
I explained the problem to my host – expecting to be told that they are not responsible for third party software problems, but …!!!! they fixed it. Perhaps the problem was their fault when they replaced the data base.
All is well.
Yes i have been having the same problem showing site under maintenance with my blog but i now reinstall everything afresh
