I was trying to update plugins in Wordpress when I seemed to lose the connection: the update page was stuck for a long time and eventually timed out. As a result our front page is now stuck in maintenance mode. The solution is to delete the .maintenance file in /var/www/html but I don't have permission to do that because I'm not the owner of the file. Yop, I think you're the only person who can fix it.
Edit: nvm, Wordpress must have some sort of fallback mechanism built in because a few minutes after writing that, I was able to log in again and was given a message along the lines of "an automated update failed, please attempt the update again". I did and now it all seems to be working.

Argh! This isn't the first time I've timed out whilst typing out a TL;DR post and I've lost the whole post because I logged in again using the log in box in the middle of the screen and it takes me to the 'thank you for logging in' page, then doesn't redirect to anything but a whited out screen. Don't tell me I need Lazarus, I need this shit to stop annoying the fuck out of me without relying on third-party software.

Yes, but Ctrl+A, Ctrl+X makes you certain that it's actually copied everything to your clipboard, because once in a blue moon, Ctrl+C doesn't do it, and then you're up shit creek with something stupid and useless in your clipboard.

I had the same problem. Seems to be working now, though. Let's hope this doesn't happen again straight away or anytime soon.

It turns out the server's hard drive was full; errors were caused by there being no space left to write a line in the log anymoar.
I should probably change how backups work so it's idk, directly uploaded to the backup server or something instead of stored first. It stores the four last backup files too, and they weigh in at almost 50GB apiece now.
