Site not loading

Usually it is one or more plugins that can cause this.
If you can’t get to your site – ftp to site and temporarily rename the plugins folder.
See if your site comes up then. If so, rename plugins folder back and activate plugins one by one – testing with each.

Great idea about using ftp to shut off the plugins and get in to the site. Will be doing this in the next few days and letting you know how it turns out.
Thanks!

I tried the experiement with the plugins, with no effect, unfortunately. Meanwhile, my hosting service examined the issue, and here is what they said:

“one of the files in your blog folder was getting fairly heavily trafficked by what appeared to be automated web crawlers. When we renamed this file, wp-comments-post.php, as a test, within a few minutes your blog was resolving properly again. After verifying that the large volume of traffic on that file from web crawlers was causing the issue, we did rename it back to its original name.”

Any suggestions on how I can resolve that?

Thanks!

One more thing: the tech from my hosting service also said, “it is possible that the number of visitors
to your site is overwhelming the number of mySQL connections available
for your account. You can minimize the impact of these account
limitations by specifically closing the mySQL connection in your PHP
code so that those resources are freed for further page views.”

Does this suggest any fixes?

Thanks!

Since being told that my wp-comments-post.php file was under attack, absorbing so many resources as to prevent the site from loading, I installed the “wp-spamfree” and “bad behavior” plugins hoping they would relieve the problem. They have not.

And now, in addition to the connection/loading problem, on those rare times when I am able to get into and use the admin page, I get this at the top of it when I save a draft:

–

WordPress database error: [Duplicate entry ‘22680’ for key 1]
INSERT INTO wp_postmeta (post_id,meta_key,meta_value) VALUES (‘2184′,’_edit_lock’,’1237878049′)

WordPress database error: [Duplicate entry ‘22680’ for key 1]
INSERT INTO wp_postmeta (post_id,meta_key,meta_value) VALUES (‘2184′,’_edit_last’,’1′)

–

Any ideas for a fix?

As it stands, this connection error problem has driven my stats into the ground, and is forcing me to abandon the blog. Hopefully, this forum – which appears to be my only remaining resource – will help produce a solution.

One more thing – at the same time that the above warning messages started appearing on the post edit page, those below (it’s long!) started showing up at the top of the plugin module on the admin home page:

–

Im having the same problem at we-are-awesome.com/blog
Was using it perfectly yesterday, but now blog isnt loading properly and i cant log into WordPress.

I updated to the latest version yesterday and it was working perfectly.

I tried to rename the plugins folder, but that had no effect. The blog is new and not even launched, so it isnt getting many hits either.

It may be because i changed the blog URL in general settings.
But i cant even login to fix that.

thank you all! the renaming of the plugin folder worked for me.
