I saw your DMs, guys. I don't know the first thing about computer...stuff. Hopefully Grey caught my message and he'll look into it when he can.
Just remember, guys, Grey hosts this site and runs this for free, on his own time. So give him the space and time he needs to get it done on his schedule.
So everyone can thank Grey for his generosity even as they get 500 server errors.
SYMPTOMS: it seems that just about any post with a chapter download file is getting a 500 error, as well as most older posts that are just text. Newer threads without file downloads seem to be working.

Re: 500 Server Error.
I tried looking it up but it's outside my very limited technical knowledge. I'm curious what happens if you create a new post with an attachment? Will it fail or is it just a one time event that caused posts in the past to break.
You can still download from sennadar.com, so whatever is there is available. If you can make a post without it breaking, maybe re-post all the recent stuff that isn't on the website if you want. I don't have a copy of everything.

Re: 500 Server Error.
All fixed, sorry about that!
For those who are curious about the cause: I had upgraded the core php version because I was using it for a personal project - and the site still looked to be working - but I hadn't upgraded one of the dependencies of phpbb (php-xml), which is required for some things - like posts with attachments apparently - to work.
I didn't test thoroughly enough after the upgrade, so I definitely wasn't practicing what I preach in my work life where I would have expected change implementers to have a detailed test plan and at least check the error logs after deployment
Oh well. This does remind me there's a bunch of maintenance I need to do on the site though, so I should keep that on my mind to do.
