I am facing the exact error.
URL:
http://www.7sisters.in (Classified ad post for North East India)
It all started when a couple of days ago I turned on the update for minor bugs and fixes. After that my admin and also I tested user login and registration has stopped. I cannot login to my dashboard anymore.
My softaculous from serverside gave me an option to upgrade to 3.4.1 from 3.3.2 which I did and it freezed at 95%. When I cancelled it after more then 30 mins of waiting, it gave me the message that I should turn off permalink to proceed. If I am not able to login to dashboard how would I turn off the permalink. TESEO helped me out with a sql command to turn off the permalink through PHPMYADMIN.
Now my softaculous does not show me anymore updates and I am at loss how to recover my login to dashboard and make my site normal.
My site frontend is showing up. But no one can post or login or register anymore. So it means it is just showing old posts and now at standstill.
I need urgent help on this as this site was meant for free ad listing for remote places of North East India and was up and running successfully last 4 months now and there are followers. Delays and login, posting and registration means I would lose the members that painfully I have built up.
Once again TESEO thank you for all you have done till now.
Regards,
Luna
