Hi

Thanks for the quick reply and suggestion Cash, I tried the plugin, it found errors and corrected them however I still have the same problem on my home page. It's better, before I had 2 PMs but couldn't open inbox, it removed one message and I can now get it.

Any ideas about how to fix the home page?

Thanks

There is a fix related to this in the upcoming 1.7.2 release of Elgg (trying to better handle cases when the database is corrupted).

It's hard to tell you what to do without knowing what entity is causing the problem. Can you come up with a list of the effected pages?

A quick solution is to upload/create a lot of content that goes to the front page. That will push the bad entity from the top of the results.

OK Cash, Im looking into restoring from last weeks backup.

But lesson learned :/

The lack of an error message may be a bug in Elgg. The lack of a profile photo is probably not.

OK thanks, guys, I will ask my hosts if they can check the images are still in the data files. It wouldn't be the first time the problem was their end, usualy database or mail related though.

I will post a follow up if I sort it out.

I know you said you didn't do anything to the site, but I had the same problem when I renamed the tidypics folder to plug_tidypics, thinking it would be easier to manage plugins and themes. When I changed the name back, the pictures returned. Maybe the folder was renamed?
