Compute Engine (wordpress website) crashed, wrong SSL command and space issue - wordpress

I have been running my wordpress website on Google cloud the last 12 months with no issue. VM instance - using SSH on Apache server.
My website went down yesterday and I could not access it through wordpress. I am trying to do everything myself and I am a beginner when it comes to learning the back end functionality.
So I went into my google cloud and ssl’d onto my server. I though it might be an outdated certificate and I entered an incorrect command (see photo attached - I didn't include my actual email and domain name stupidly, copied and pasted it from the internet). And now I am getting an error saying mysql is not working. I think there may be a space issue too.
When I try go to my website I get and
Error establishing a database connection
So my questions are - did I mess up anything from entering the wrong code in SSL? And how do I solve the space issue and get my site running again.
I just tried to updated my server size through google console - but gettting the error in the screenshot that it can't connect.

Enter the following content into the script and save it. Ensure to replace the ‘Domain’ placeholder with your actual domain name, and the ‘Email-Address’ placeholder with your email address.
For Apache:
#!/bin/bash
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop apache
sudo /opt/bitnami/letsencrypt/lego --tls --email="EMAIL-ADDRESS" --domains="DOMAIN" --path="/opt/bitnami/letsencrypt" renew --days 90
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh start apache
Please go through this link for more information.
In some cases, the certificates aren’t properly uploaded to the server, so the server is still using the dummy ones. Perform the following checks:
Check that the certificate files are located as below for Apache:
Certificate: /opt/bitnami/apache2/conf/server.crt
Key: /opt/bitnami/apache2/conf/server.key
CA: /opt/bitnami/apache2/conf/server-ca.crt.
Please follow this link for connection refused error.
If you still face issues after following the above, do mention the details about the error to narrow down the issue.

Apache Airflow Webserver Log In Failed

I realise this is a duplicate of thousands of posts across the internet, but I have only found solutions for version <2.0, and those solutions do not apply to >2.0.
Basically, I have installed Apache Airflow on an Ubuntu system. Everything installed fine, as far as I see from command line, and I first create a user:
airflow users create --role Admin --username admin --email admin --firstname admin --lastname admin --password admin
And then from here I start up the webserver and scheduler:
airflow webserver -p 8585 > ${AIRFLOW_HOME}/logs/webserver.log 2>&1 &
airflow scheduler > ${AIRFLOW_HOME}/logs/scheduler.log 2>&1 &
And then I can access the webserver via "http://<HOST_IP>:8585" - This loads to the log in screen no problem.
But when I try to log in using the user details initially created, or by using my OS user (on the off-chance), it just fails with "Invalid login." I've tried restarting the webserver and Ubuntu to no avail.
I've used Airflow <2.0 in the past and never even created a user and just logged in straight away, so I'm really blank on what the answer is here. I absolutely hate Airflow and am loosing my mind just trying to log in, so a massive thanks for any help!
Okay, sooo I managed to get it running with login potential. I think I've discovered the issue, at least, and can re-create the problem, though frankly I have ZERO idea why it IS an issue (software coded issue??).
Basically, I had to run the install processes above as ROOT user. I was trying to run it as my admin user, but it kept resulting in the log in issue above - I did notice however that all install guides appear to use the ROOT user, so I gave it a shot in case it was as annoyingly simple as that, and VOILA!! First time logged in.
I did stop the software running at this point, quickly restart it as my admin user and immediately got the same login issue. There's something odd going on here, and I don't know what it is, but when in doubt: Try ROOT.
Solution- Create user again
I ran into the same issue. I had created an Admin user using the same command and after some changes to my config file, I ran airflow db init. After this when I started the webserver, I tried logging in with my admin credentials, but no luck. When I checked the logs, it showed me -
WARNING - No user yet created, use flask fab command to do it.
So I created the user again and it worked.

Koken & Chrome: INCOMPLETE_CHUNKED_ENCODING

Some albums do not load using koken and I get this error INCOMPLETE_CHUNKED_ENCODING on Chrome. I'm using nginx 1.6.2, CentOS 7, Koken 0.22.4. I'm using graphicsMagick 1.3.23, ImageMagick 6.9.2, PHP 5.6.21 and MySQL 5.1.73.
Related issue
After checking some related issues about INCOMPLETE_CHUNKED_ENCODING like:
This on the apache help blog
Another one here
And finally this one
I solved it by changing the permissions on my /opt/nginx directory to the nginx user. It may be related with the last referenced post.
when you give a response too big for Nginx, it uses this directory to
write as a working directory for temporary files. If the worker
process cannot access it, Nginx will terminate the transmission before
it completes, thus the error INCOMPLETE_CHUNKED_ENCODING.

How To resolve server configuration issue

In top of my dashboard showing two errors...
Warning: An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or this server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the support forums. (WordPress could not establish a secure connection to WordPress.org. Please contact your server administrator.) in /public_html/couponinuse.com/wp-includes/update.php on line 295
thankz in advance
Assuming this is coming from a localhost installation.....
This is due to you having a poor internet connection. I see it often. All it does is slow down your localhost site while it searches for wordpress.org, and that is all. It is simply Wordpress checking the net for updates (and probably fonts as well).
It's just irritating, but no action is needed on your behalf.
I have solved this issue by adding the following line in the bottom of wp-config.php file.
define('WP_HTTP_BLOCK_EXTERNAL', false);
I fixed the error on Ubuntu OS using following steps
open terminal or(Ctrl+t) and type ping api.wordpress.org
Note the ip address pinging on the terminal. Close the operation by typing Ctrl+c
Type sudo gedit /etc/hosts and add above ipaddress followed by api.wordpress.org like this (198.xxx.xxx.xxx api.wordpress.org) in the host file
Hope this helps others who runs Ubuntu OS

Visual Website Optimizer A/B Testing On Local Machine

So I have my app running on my local server, I am trying to a/b test the feature with Visual Website Optimizer.
I put the server address(publicly not available) in the preview URL, but when I open the preview page, it gives a warning saying "Error: Cookie could not be set.". Cookies are enabled.
My question is, should the preview page (or default campaign url) be publicly reachable for VWO to work properly?
In order to run the VWO on localhost, you just need to make a small adjustment to the /etc/hosts file. Just add "localhost.com" at the end of the line that says "127.0.0.1 localhost"
Now you can run the VWO on any URL that starts with http://localhost.com.
The URL of the page should be publicly reachable only for Screenshots of the variations. Live previews should work even if the URL is accessible only locally. Though you should use a valid URL i.e. a URL having a valid domain name and TLD.
For any other info / debugging I would request you to send a mail to support (at) wingify (dot) com if not already done so that an exact solution can be shared.
This is probably because you are opening your website as an html file in your file system. You can host your static website locally with HarpJS. Install it through npm
npm install -g harp
Go to the root dir of your site and run harp server. Now you'll be able to open your site on http://localhost:9000
Also I have written an article how to easier develop experiments for Optimizely/VWO usage http://bit.ly/1C4vtSA

Not able to run ASP.NET web app using Development Server

My development machine (Vista) was working perfectly fine for over a year and then suddenly (without explicitly installing anything) I am unable to run the websites using ASP.NET development server.
The development web server starts fine, but IE cannot display the page:
Internet Explorer cannot display the
webpage
Firefox says - Failed to
Connect, The connection was refused
when attempting to contact
localhost:49447.
Here is what I have tried so far:
Disabling firewall
Stopping anti-virus
Stopping Windows Defender
It worked when I stopped all services using MSConfig and tried again.
However, that disables most of the services, so is not a feasible long term solution.
After stopping all services, I tried starting services one by one to find out which one is causing problem.
These are the steps and results:
I found DNS Client Service was
causing problem.
So I started all others and
stopped DNS Client service, but then
Network Location Awareness service
started causing problem
I stopped DNS Client Service and
Network Location Awareness and
started all others, btu again
something else is causing problem.
Clearly there is something common and fundamental at the root of this.
I do not know much about networking. Can someone guide me in right direction?
Note: I have found another person who
is having same problems since this
morning. Looks like it could be
related to one fo the windows updates!
Is anyone else getting affected like
me?
I was able to fix this on my computer by doing the following:
My host file contained this line for the localhost entry, which is how the host file ships with Vista, and i've never modified this line
::1 localhost
Replaced "::1 localhost" with the this:
127.0.0.1 localhost
"::1 localhost" has worked fine for me for well over a year, until this morning. Windows defender installed two updates, one yesterday and one this morning, my guess is that something in one of these updates caused this entry to not work anymore.
I have solved this problem.
The problem comes because somehow the entry in host file is removed for localhost.
you have to add entry in host file which is kept in System32/etc folder.
just add this at the end of the file.
127.0.0.1 localhost.
save this file and try to ping localhost from cmd prompt.
i think this will resolve your problem.
now try running you website.
All the best.............
If stopping all the services made it owrk, try stopping one at a time. Eventually you will find out which one it is.
Hopefully someone will know which it is from experience, but if not you can find it yourself.
Sounds like you have a proxy server issue - have you checked this out?
KB886388 - You may receive a "Failure to connect to Web server" error message when you browse local Web applications
I also started to get this problem tonight, think I installed a windows update package yesterday.
I'm running VS 2008 (9.0.30729.1 SP) and Vista Ultimate SP1 (32-bit).
Replacing localhost with 127.0.0.1 worked for me.
http://localhost:49227/testsite/Default.aspx
http://127.0.0.1:49227/testsite/Default.aspx
I'm having the same problem. Was working on my website last night, one minute the site worked in the broswers next minute it could not connect to the localhost.
Replacing localhost to 127.0.0.1 worked for me. I'm still inexperienced in asp.net, is there a file where you change
http://localhost:49227/testsite/Default.aspx to
http://127.0.0.1:49227/testsite/Default.aspx
As I am just changing the url in the browsers
This one also worked for me. What I did was:
Go to the Property Page of my Project.
Then under Start Options, look for the Server, instead of 'Use default Web Server', i changed it to 'Use Custom Server'.
Typed the http://127.0.0.1:49227/MyProject/ in the Base Url.
That's it. It automatically opens the site using this link.
Same problem here using visual studio 2008 express
Changed "localhost" to "127.0.0.1" and the page came up.
This problem seems to have an effect on internet explorer and firefox
Opera hasn't seen this problem :-)
Grtz
Changing "localhost" to "127.0.0.1" worked well for me, as well.
but just to clarify the whom are not familiar with vista here are the guidelines to change:
Browse to Start -> All Programs -> Accessories
Right click "Notepad" and select "Run as administrator"
Click "Continue" on the UAC prompt
Click File -> Open
Browse to "C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc"
Change the file filter drop down box from "Text Documents (.txt)" to "All Files (.*)"
Select "hosts" and click "Open"
Make the needed changes and close Notepad. Save when prompted.
The problem comes because somehow the entry in host file is removed for localhost.
you have to add entry in host file which is kept in System32/etc folder.
just add this at the end of the file.
127.0.0.1 localhost.
save this file and try to ping localhost from cmd prompt.
