I looked up the mysql error line...and found that mines was disabled. I wonder if a sudden power loss to the server turned off some service.

By not enabling the TagsPlugin the error seemed to have disappeared.

TagsPlugin uses a SQL database. If you enable that plugin, the database connection needs to be configured in bin/configure under the extensions tab.
