[pmwiki-users] Suddenly can't edit, create new pages

[Steven Benmosh]

It is a dedicated server, connected to a residential line. I have made
updates a few weeks ago, but the problem started some time in the last two
days, as I have added files quite recently with success, and only
experienced the problem this morning.

BTW, our internet connection is sketchy, so it may be that the server is
inaccessible at times. I apologize for this problem.

I think config.php is working, since I can visit other pages and other wikis
in the farm just fine, and i can log in, just not create or edit the files.

Tell me which log file to use. I won't have access to the server for a
couple of days, but will check it when I do.

Thanks for your help.
