Just started having a problem trying to access Admin/Site Settings. I get the error that follows. Anyone seen anything like this before. All other admin functionality appears accessible. Host/Site Settings is accessible.


Error: Site Settings is currently unavailable.

Have you made any recent upgrades to your site?

Can you see any other administrative pages? Any host pages?

I have a memory that I have seen something like this when the database is full. If you can truncate the EventLog and SiteLog tables, this may alleviate the problem. You can do this from the Host, SQL page. [If that is then answer, you'll probably want to install IowaComputerGurus.com's Scheduled SQL Task module to keep those tables from filling the database.]

If none of this works, please let me know and I'll see what else might come to mind.

Tried it, but no change :-(

What did you try?

Can you try answering my other questions? That might help me understand the situation better.
