Hi Kimi, I am experiencing this at the moment, and going through the panic stage as nothing is loading. I will have to bite my lip and take your advice to do nothing for now. Hopefully it is something to do with the host, its late at night so I guess it could be some sort of maintenance.

Hi Binh,

I have encoutered this many times, in my old free hosting, and once or twice with this blogs.

But I guess it was caused by the host, because I did not change anything and a few minutes later it works again, I am glad I did not touch database though, because non-savvy person like me, can do big mistake with database!

But in your case, I am sure learning something new, and I hope that will never happen to me or anyone else.

Thanks for the explanation!

Kimi.

Hello KIMI,

I come here because i’m looking for a solution for a real problem. Your case is very popular because that may only be cause of your blog not cached and so it overloaded the mySQL allowances.

However currently I encounter this message for all my blogs and meo.vn is one case. I had to fix it by renaming the tables of the first blog one by one from wp_1_xxx to wp_xxx.

I’m in hope of having a real solution as a php file or something. Hopefully one of your visitors know about it. Thanks in advance.
