I have an AWS server running four WordPress sites. All plugins have been deactivated on one of the sites and I cannot enable them.

When I try enabling them in bulk, or individually, there is no error and it even says "Plugin activated.", but they are not.

I have tried changing the ACLs temporarily, so that the webserver has full access. I have tried moving directories of plugins that have been recently updated, but nothing works.

I have found that UpdraftPlus backups stopped being produced by this site and a similarly configured one (similar custom-made theme and nearly the same plugins) two days ago.

Also, I have noticed that WP-CLI has not been working properly with these two similar sites over the last couple of days.

I don't know what else to say. I'm completely stumped.

What can I do about this?

  • Can you verify that the database user has add/update permissions for the WordPress database? Are you still able to add posts and other content?

  • @boscho Hi, thanks. I made a test post and it showed up fine. I have added some more information to the question.

    Hrm... I have to admit I'm not sure as to what could be happening, here. But a couple of other steps towards troubleshooting the issue: you mention that no errors are displayed - do you have WP_DEBUG enabled in your wp-config.php file (and PHP set to display errors)? What do you get when you query your database with SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = 'active_plugins';?
