Discuss weeping solvent weld joint in the UK Plumbers Forums area at Plumbers Forums
The photo looks to me like someone used push-fit pipe for the vertical waste pipe with a solvent weld fitting. To confirm, measure the diameter of the waste pipe. Callipers are best but if you don't have them... Cut a piece of thread that exactly wraps twice around the pipe, then measure the length to get twice the circumference in millimetres. Divide this value by 6.28 to get the pipe diameter in mm.

Looks correct pipe but maybe under tension can see a crack in the solvent on the left hand side so is it being forced right ?
