hmm
are you sure?

well then please check the standard stuff
diskspace?
directory permissions?
log files?
strace
also diff all the files against a fresh roundup install
did the system ever crash? if so make sure nothing got corrupted


Also what values do
add_author and max_attachment_size have?

the first may fix the annoyig autonosy if its no
and the second might prevent huge attachments
of course iam not sure, thats just based on TFM

and why is the respective config file not in git?
does it contain sensitive data like passwords?
