Well, I didn’t touch a thing but out of the blue ( for thankfully a short time )

I checked both files and both were as per original installation.

My web host ( as they usually do ) blamed the cart application.

Any guesses as to why this error would pop up ???

Ask them to restart Mysql server.

The host mentioned a cost involved and it appears that the cart software caused it.

Are these things haunted or what ? Crashing one minute up and running the next.

It's all well and fine to say restart the Mysql server but what could have caused the

dysfunction in the first place ?
