I am getting this error message when i try to access my forum. Can anybody tell me is this related to the server attacks or is it something else. Cheers

the server attacks have nothing at all to do with any problems on your own site. Please ask for support with your site in the support section for your version.
This is a very old and very well known bug in SMF. When you have a database problem, it can result in the Settings.php file being emptied out (0 size). Simply copy your Settings_bak.php file over your empty Settings.php file and you'll be in business. Make your Settings.php file "read only" (444 on a Linux server) to keep it from happening again. If your Settings_bak.php file is also empty or corrupted, you'll have to download and run repair_settings.php to rebuild your Settings.php file.
MrPhil you are a star, i'm back in business ;D
Thanks for your advice ;)
