Make sure that you're logged in and that you're using the latest version.

It is a backend error message that means for some reason the web server cannot connect to a database (mysql).

It could mean their database is down.

Looks like a SQL server error on their side. I wouldn't worry much about it. You can try clearing your cookies and internet cache, then try it again.

I can't decode it precisely, but I strongly suspect the problem is on the server end, not yours.

I get the same thing. I believe the problem lies with Tinypic.com and not your system. Apache is the software that is running on THEIR server.

Have you previously loaded pictures from your computer using the same configuration? If so, the web site is probably sick, and will get corrected after a while. Try again tomorrow.

He doesn't need PHP to post to tinypic. PHP is running on their server.

Apache is the web server application fronting a database written in MySQL - my guess is that their server is a Linux box - and what it's saying is that there's an authentication error between the web app and the database app based on an incompatible client on THEIR box. Not to worry.

(Of course that's what THEY told me to say...)

Anyway... the error is on their end - not yours.

It means that the server's drive spork is corrupted. They'll have to recompile the RAID and then republish their T-IJG tables to the new spork. This should take about an hour. Try uploading your file then.

Another poster said "make sure you have the latest version". It made me think he meant you need the latest version of PHP... which makes no sense with a service like that.

Just recently upgraded mine it must still be on my mind.

I don't know what in the hell that means. If he's uploading pictures let him use the following:
