ZC Main & Admin HANGING and RUNNING SLOWLY -Getting Error Message

[Donn]

Hi Zen Cart Ppl.... It's been a while...

My cart has been working 100% until fairly recently.

Now, it seems to run REALLY slowly when browsing and using the various pages on the cart as a user, logged in or not logged in.

Sometimes, the cart, and even the admin page, can't be loaded.

Now, when trying to login to admin, I get this message nearly ALWAYS:

select * from MDproject_version WHERE project_version_key = 'Zen-Cart Database' ]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

and have to retry at least twice in order to get the login page to even load. If even....at all.....(lately not at ALL...and it's been progressively getting WORSE!)

And, as I stated, ALL pages on the cart seem to load SLOWLY, while other items on my server are still accessible without any delay. So it isn't that my server's just slow....and it isn't any ONE page or pages on the cart.

It's all of them, or none that end up not being able to load, or load slowly. And it happens using different browsers, on different machines.

But it's *JUST* the cart that's affected.



The cart itself, when browsing as a logged in ( or not logged in ) user, seems to just hang lately. After ten minutes, it sometimes works again.

It seems that trying to even LOAD the admin.php, and getting that error message, will hang ALL workings of the cart - PERIOD - for at least a few minutes. Then it seems to reset, and the cart is again accessible, though still running slowly.

But---the admin is usually STILL not accessible.

GoDaddy is my hosting service, and I run ZenCart version 1.3.7 .

I hadn't dumped the admin log file for a while....was getting warnings from the ZC software to do so, but waited a while...

Finally backed up my database and reset the admin log....

Could it be that waiting too long to reset somehow messed up my database??? Or SOMEthing?!?!
