Wiki Data disappeared

My data has disappeared, though searches can still be performed and change data is still there. Suddenly the data display to read the pages is gone. No error codes displayed. Thank you for any suggestions. http://thewinerbuds.com/wiki

If you look at the HTML source of any page, you see a lot of MediaWiki configuration variables listed inside <script> tags which should not show up there. No idea where that comes from but that's where I'd start to investigate.

Thank you guys, It most like is indeed my server provider updated behind me and I need to update wiki.

This is caused by a change in PCRE 8.34. You need to downgrade PCRE, or update MediaWiki to version 1.22.1 or newer (seeĀ task T60640).

I am not sure how to upgrade the wiki site but I will search on it.

On a shared host, you can't upgrade or downgrade PCRE. That's up to the host. To upgrade MediaWiki, see Manual:Upgrading. Alternatively, you can patch your MediaWiki installation to fix the PCRE issue as described in the task, but that's not recommended, since your MediaWiki version is obsolete and may have open vulnerabilities
