Title: Cannot Delete Board
Post by: aswuser on June 15, 2020, 12:31:21 AM
SMF v2.0.17 php 7.1

I don't have any mods installed.

I already checked this previous post.
https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=550158.msg3900668#msg3900668

My situation is the same - try to delete board, get white page. Board is still there with no posts. I cannot find any error logs, nothing in php_errorlog, or SMF errorlog. Ran repair_settings.php although setting are already correct.

This a development site to prepare for upgrade of old SMF from 1.1.14. I made a copy and upgraded first to 1.19, then to 2.0.10, then finally to 2.0.17.

Thanks!

Did you also try to run the repair function reported in that thread?

I just ran the Repair Errors function and it said No Errors.   :(   But, I decided to try and delete that board again and to my surprise, it deleted!!

Also -- if you are getting a white screen -- and your server is not logging the issue, then you need to talk to your host.

Shouldn't cause a white screen.

Yes, I ran  the repair function. I've been trying over several days, logging in and out.

Could it be related to caching or time out? I deleted the cache under forum maintenance.

Without error logging, not sure what to do next.

Turn on error log / ask your host to turn on server error logging.
