widensD	Tell us what you are trying to do? The site is in English and I use WPML to translate it to French, things were working ok when I click on the French translate menu button when browsing the site pages, but now, I'm just getting an error: Service Unavailable The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later. Additionally, a 503 Service Unavailable error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. Is there any documentation that you are following? No Is there a similar example that we can see? Just clicking on the French link menu in any page What is the link to your site? pricegroupottawa.ca Note that site is currently in development, so it is in maintenance mode.

Mihai Apetrei WPML Supporter since 03/2018 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Bucharest (GMT+03:00)	Hi there. Before this ticket gets assigned to one of my colleagues, I will try to help. From what I can see in the Google search results, this issue might happen due to the fact that the server limits are reached: hidden link Can you create a full website backup and then update the WPML plugins to the beta versions and see if the issue gets resolved? Or test this in a testing/staging environment if you can't create a backup first? - Can you install this beta: version 3.2.8-b.1 https://wpml.org/download/wpml-string-translation/?section=changelog  - Can you install this WPML beta version 4.6.6-b.1: https://wpml.org/download/wpml-multilingual-cms/?section=changelog Please let us know how things go and if the issue is still happening. Mihai

widensD	Hello. I will try to install the beta. Indeed, I'm looking at 97% of CPU usage from CPANEL since I tried to translate quite an amount of strings yesterday. It seems to hang and won't go down. Will update you. Thanks, Widens

widensD	I see Version 3.2.8-b.2. Should I install that one instead?
