Dear phpbb support,
My forum crashed the other day after my server ran out of space. For some reason Bluehost charges me 75 dollars now for VPS compared to 24 dollars in 2014 for the same server resources of 30 GB only, which is insane. And half of the 30 GB is used up by the system OS so I don't even get to use half of that. Hence my server crashes a lot and never has enough space. I don't get why they are charging me so much for a bad server with only 15 GB of usable space, when I could get on shared hosting for 14 dollars a month with unlimited space.
Anyway, every time I tried to repair the database table phpbb_posts in phpmyadmin, the server hangs and then eventually crashes again. The table says it is "in use" and wasn't properly closed. See screenshots below. My webshot admin tried to repair it too but got the same result. See the screenshot they sent me below. I also included a screenshot of the error message in phpmyadmin when I checked the crashed table.
What can I do? How do I close the phpbb_posts table properly and then fix it? Is there a command I can run in MySQL? I already tried "repair table phpbb_posts Use_FRM" but it didn't work and caused the server to hang.
Thanks.
