Site can’t save updates, kind of goes offline

  • For no apparent reason all of a sudden the site will not let us update any pages. We use the 12 Step Meeting guide plugin, and we cannot add or update any entries. When I ty to update, all of a sudden the site is unreachable, then comes back after 15 – 20 minutes.

    I get this message:
    Hmmm… can’t reach this pageaamesaaz.org took too long to respond

    This occurs for me when I am 2 physical locations also the other admin who is in another location, so I ruled out network issues.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you! I am reaching out to them as well, but the issue also happened when I tried to update a static page.
    It happened the last time when I opened the front page for editing, then cancelled, then refreshed the pages list and poof it was gone, and I was at “Hmmm… can’t reach this pageaamesaaz.org took too long to respond”.
    I am just not sure how to debug, I am not that experienced and have not come across anything like this before.

    *install health check plugin which can be used in troubleshooting mode to deactivate all plugins and theme might help narrow down the source of the issue

    Yes, they suggested we look here, they think the issue lies with WordPress. I have now exasperated the problem. I had another suggestion to upgrade to the latest version of 5.9 from my verion of 5.8.4. The site is live, but once I log onto the Admin side…. “There has been a critical error on this website. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions”… And there is no email. Guess I may be finding out how well the back up works since now I cannot do anything under the Admin login.

    I did a couple things.
    First, I renamed the plugins folder to plugins.hold. No help.
    Second, I copied the wp-admin folder back from the last backup. Now I can navigate the Admin menus.
    Third, I validated all plugins were not there. “No plugins are currently available.”
    Fourth, I edited the front page by changing a period to an exclamation point, saved and published.
    I validated in a separate browser (Edge for Admin login, Chrome to view and validate the site without logging in) and the save was there.
    Then the site went unresponsive just like before in both browsers, and auto-recovered in about 20 minutes and the site became available.

    Is my best bet to try to re-instell? Would I introduce the same problem restoring from backup?

    Below is 3 of many “like” entries I see in the root error_log file:

    I did a manual installation of WordPress to 5.9.3. Then I reactivated all the plugins and now the site is functional, and I can update plugin entries for the Meeting Guide and update static pages. I would like to know what to do about all the error messages in the log file that I mentioned in the last post.

    Thank you for helping with this!
