 * Hello
 * At this moment I’m not entirely sure if it’s WP’s fault, but it’s the second 
   time this is occuring.
 * It doesn’t happen all the time I publish or save a new post, but it does happen
   frequently whenever I do so.
 * I get a **“Page cannot be displayed”** message upon clicking “Save” or “Publish”,
   and immediately after this, the **database crashes and WP is unable to connect.**
 * So far, the only solution is to repair the database. Which takes really long 
   and I really do not want to do it on a daily basis. Any ideas?
 * This only happened **after I upgraded to 2.5.1.** 2.5 was running smooth.
 * My host server also recently suffered a **“heavy /home2 partition damage”** due
   to a [downtime](http://www.webhostingbuzz.com/forums/showthread.php?p=9422#post9422).
   So if any you guys can translate what that means for me and tell me what might
   be going wrong, I’ll be much in your debt!
 * Thanks!

 * Sorry I must have been dumb not to post this, but I couldn’t figure out where
   the SQL error logs were stored for the life of me till 2 hours later.

 * I’m having the exact same issue… I see this issue posted a couple of time in 
   these forums with no answers…
 * Can some one help with the 2.5 to 2.5.1 database crashing issue?
 * **Note: **I did get the upgrade wordpress screen after uploading the 2.5.1 and
   it seemed to have work like it should.

 * This is nothing to do with wordpress – talk to your host providers and ask them
   why their servers are messing up.
