Most of the time that means that PHP is not
communicating with the database. You may want to
check your database settings or see if MySQL is running

Inaccessible means blank pages. While trying to
access the wiki in FireFox, I get a blank page -
not even an error message. In IE8 I receive the
message " The website cannot display the page".
Hence, I can't undo the changes I did to
MediaWiki:commmon.css either. This combined
with your answer make me believe that the error
is something else than the common.css. After
spending some hours on it yesterday, I decided
to order a full backup of the wiki database and
revert to the state of the day before. (No
serious losses except from the time spent on this issues...)
Thanks a lot for your answer!

I have set up a small MediaWiki site some
months ago. I wanted to change the appearance
of tables, and did the following:
From the english Wikipedia, I opened the page
with the common style sheet
(MediaWiki:Common.css), copied the content and
pasted it into the corresponding page in "my"
MediaWiki installation. However, after some
minutes the entire site suddenly became completely inaccessible!
Of course, I suspect the change of
Common.css. But I might certainly have done other unintended changes.
My questions:
1) Any proposals on how I can get access to the wiki again?
2) If not, are there any way I can
"undo" the changes to
Common.css when I have no
access to the Wiki? (The wiki is installed on
a webhotel (
http://www.one.com). I have no
shell access, but access via FTP and an administration panel for MySql.
Hoping for an answer...

What do you mean by inaccessible?
A bad CSS change couldn't for instance produce a blank page. It can eg.
make you lose the styles, but nothing too dramatic.
The easiest way to undo your change is to disable CSS in your browser
and revert that page. The wiki will look "funny" without CSS but is
completely usable.
