Error message when trying to save

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi! I have been getting an ‘Aw, Snap’ error message when I try to save my work on my blog, along with ‘something went wrong while displaying this webpage Error code 5’. Alternatively when I try to save it tries to save until finally timing out. When I go to version history, the second to last version has a portion of my work, and the last version saved has almost everything deleted. Please help! Thank you.

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  • Howdy –

    Thanks for writing to us. I am looking at GuacTales (super clever, btw!) and don’t see any obvious problems on my side of things.

    Let me know if this is still an issue. Typically, that message indicates a problem with the local set up. That’s usually a browser problem, or a connection issue, or some mix of the two. Here are some basic troubleshooting steps to help you find and fix the problem if it happens again.
