My wordpress site suddenly stopped working

  • Everything was working smooth and the page were online and fully working. Then my ISP had some outages and internet was down for 2 hours. When it came back the website was not working any longer and I cannot even access the wordpress admin board. Even if IP was changed I use duckdns.org and it is updated and should work.

    Now I found something weird when I checked the apache2/error.log. It did not find any files at all. So I opened a terminal and wrote the sudo apachectl -S. and it says:

    ServerRoot: “/etc/apache2”
    Main DocumentRoot: “/var/www/html”

    My wordpress is inside /var/www/html/wordpress so no wonder it is not working. I have not altered the virtualhosts config and upon checking that exact file that lies /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default-le-ssl.conf:2) I can see it points to the right folder.

    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/wordpress

    So why the hell is Apache saying that the main documentroot is in var/www/html? I have not changed anything and I have restarted apache and the PC several times. Nothing is working. Everything was working before the outage and now Apache thinks my wordpress is inside the html folder.

    I also cannot even reach my wordpress dashboard locally anymore. I can reach the website locally, but the wordpress dashboard gets me to an oops page cannot be found.

    Edit: I set the debug display to true in the wp config and now I can access the admin dashboard. So weird. Well I can only access the website locally still and I check my dns and it is up to date and should be working, but its not. Been talking with chatgpt for about 48 hours on this problem and it seems he cant solve it either.

    So I can reach my website using a Canada VPN. So the whole internet has blocked me except Canada. I knew people hated AI, but I didnt know they hated it so much by banning me so fast. Seriously, what the hell is going on? HELP!

    What’s the address of the site you need help with?
