It looks like QueryString.php is missing. Download the large upgrade package from here. Extract that file and re-upload it.

that didnt work so i extracted whole sources file

that did work either asked for

Your deleted file is gone. It looks like the problem is that SMF cannot find the PortaMx.php file that is supposed to be in the PortaMx folder. If that file is there then there is code that needs to be added to a file inside the Sources directory.

I deleted the portamx file it was in the sources folder

how do i go about getting website back up

Kt

If you delete a file from your server using ftp it is gone. If you delete it using the file manager in Cpanel then it should be in the trash. If you can't retireve that file then you will have to get it from the portamx zip file that you had to have had to install it.

where do i find the trash folder

KT

Bigguy · January 08, 2011, 01:09:14 AM

The trash in the Legacy file manager in cpanel should be in the bottom left corner of the LEGACY file manger.

KT · January 08, 2011, 01:35:14 AM

I deleted the sources file in the sources file was the portamx file

so I what i have to do is extract sources file from large upgrade 2.0RC4 zip folder

then go to portamx and download there files

KT

Bigguy · January 08, 2011, 02:02:04 AM

You deleted the Sources folder, as in the whole folder or just the Portamx.php file from the Sources folder.

KT · January 08, 2011, 02:17:38 AM

yeah the whole folder

i looked in the folder and all i saw was a portamx folder and portamx driving me crazy so i deleted sources file

there are lots of files in files legacy but i not know what they are for

I have skype : o0teapot0o , If ya want i give u access to my cpanel to fix .

KT

Bigguy · January 08, 2011, 02:37:37 AM

I can't fix anything tonight. It's almost 3 am here. I will be going to bed soon. If by tomorrow it is not fixed I will help you out.

Now that is an Oh Sh*t...

Since the whole folder is gone or empty. Upload the entire folder from the large upgrade package. Also replace index.php at the root of your forums. That should clear the PortaMax error.

All of your mods will now be removed also. So it would be advisable to uninstall them all. Ignore the errors in the files in the Sources folder.

will i lose my themes like RC4

lou

Kays · January 08, 2011, 01:51:19 PM

No, if you have a custom theme just leave it be.

KT · January 08, 2011, 03:06:51 PM

hey Thanks have site back up

regarding mods i have uninstalled them

Do I need to delete the mods from website and upload again or can i just press install and it will reinstall them.

KT

Kays · January 08, 2011, 04:07:56 PM

Great. you can just re-install the the same mods. No need to re-upload.

The main reason to uninstall them first is to remove them from the database as well as to remove any code from the theme files before you reinstall them.
