HI. I just went to do work on my site and this error message just came up.

"A database error occurred while processing this request."

Is anyone else seeing this? I there something wrong with servers?

Can you login to your site by manually typing /dashboard or /login on the end of your domain? If so check Dashboard -> Reports -> Logs and there should be more detail about the error.

No, I'm not getting any results that way either, by going to /login or /dashboard....

It sounds like a server error... any other ideas?

Thanks for your response.

This does not sound like a server error, this sounds like an error within the header/footer of your site. Can you access the database using phpMyAdmin or something similar and look at the Logs table? The most recent records should have more information.

If not, can you create a file in application/config/concrete.php with this as the content

<?php
return [
    'debug' => [
        'display_errors' => true,
        'detail' => 'debug',
    ],
];


That should give you full error detail.

Thanks for your feedback, but I'm not following you. I'm afraid I'm somewhat of a newbie here. how exactly do I find the database using phpMyAdmin to look in logs.

Thanks.

I can't answer that, each host has a different way to access the database, without having experience with your host I can't say how you do it.
