    Hi,

    Am waiting to hear on my hosting providers (34sp) but they moved my server (Queeg.34sp.com) onto a new physical platform, updated Plesk, and now my blog has gone.

    It’s at https://www.division6.co.uk.

    As far as I can see (and I’m really not good at this), the database is intact and all the files from the install (which was stable and running smoothly until the upgrade, according to my logs – have been on holiday) – am on version 2.05.

    Anyone have any thoughts on what I can do to fix this? Hoping I haven’t lost anything, haven’t done a useful backup in a while ??

    Look forward to your wisdom,

    Thanks, Armand

    Make sure that your wp-config.php file didn’t need some changes made…. and double check the siteurl and home address values (probably have to look at the wp-options table in the database using phpmyadmin). Looks like you get a login screen if you try to access https://www.division6.co.uk./wp-admin/ – what happens if you give it your login info?

    I’ll have a look at the siteurl and home address values in wp-config.

    I tried logging in – it doesn’t know who I am ??

    … will post again shortly.

    ARGH: my host seems to have deleted my database. Cleverly, WordPress has reinstalled itself and re-created a blank database, or so it would seem. I have got to shout at those guys tomorrow…

    Will need to search to find an easy way to restore a database from a backup file in the meantime. Thanks for your help.
