This usually occurs when WP has access to the database but can’t find its tables.
Via PHPMYADMIN on your hosting control panel, check your database. Do you have two sets of tables with different prefixes? If so, edit wp-config.php to change the prefix to the set that has your data. If not, try restoring your database from a backup, either one you made or one your host might have made.
Hi thank you for your reply Steve, I will try it but when I’m trying to access x10hosting afain I get thus message…. Hi All,
cPanel was unfortunately acquired by a venture capital company earlier this year which resulted in them changing the pricing structure for cPanel. Under the new structure the licensing is no longer done by server but by account, which is not sustainable for free hosting as we’d be paying thousands of dollars per server per month just in licensing.
We’ve been attempting to work out a deal on this licensing but have been unable to come to an agreement so we will need to migrate free hosting from cPanel to DirectAdmin. We’re also going to take this opportunity to clean up a lot of old systems and records that have been accumulating for the past 15 years. This will undoubtedly be the largest maintenance we’ve performed to date and we do expect some issues.
While we’ve thoroughly tested the migration process to minimize impact to accounts I expect we’ll run into issues once we start migrating live data and accounts, especially with the age and history of some of our accounts being over 10 years old. I’m hoping to complete this migration over the next week. If you’re using our DNS servers you should see little to no downtime of your actual website though accounting functions such as logging into cPanel to manage things may be limited while we update the backend systems. If you’re not using our DNS servers please look for a follow up post as the IP address of your website will be changing as it is migrated.
Inactivity suspensions will not be imposed until the migration is completed as we do expect interruptions to your ability to login the backend during this time. Our first priority is making sure the websites stay up and working along with email and FTP.
More information to follow this weekend as we start the migrations.
* We have multiple full backups of every account stored offsite, if something goes wrong with your account migration or anything is missing we do have it backed up and safe.
None of that is a WordPress issue. Ask your host how you’d restore a DB backup in their current (or planned) environment.
You might also consider changing hosts.
Hi Steve
I have managed to get on the forum for my hosting provider now and placed a message on the forum, sorry about posting here but I could log in to my host then but couldn’t after on here.
