If your site shows errors like “Table is marked as crashed and should be repaired” or “Error establishing a database connection” after an outage, a quick repair often fixes it.
Check and repair
- Log in to cPanel and open Databases → MySQL Databases.
- Under Modify Databases, choose the database from Check Database and click Check Database.
- If problems are found, choose the same database under Repair Database and click Repair Database.
Tip: Download a database backup first (Files → Backup) if you can.
Still seeing errors? The problem may be the application’s settings rather than the database itself. Open a ticket and we’ll take a look.
