This morning, I woke up to find a white page where my forum is supposed to be. The forum worked fined last night.

After several hours online with the web hosting company, we are still showing only a white page.

however, if I go to my admin login page, it works until I put my password in, then the page turns into a blank white page once again. I go back, the admin login page is there, but anywhere I navigate from there, the page goes white again.

Anyone have an idea what could be wrong? I've had the site since 2005, but this is a first for me.

Apparently anything with php is totally not working. I can go to pics, etc, and everything works normally....except the forum.

You need to check your PHP error log. It should let us know what's wrong ;)

Which SMF version are you running?

Hmmm... Good host, then...?

Have a look at the files, using FTP. The files are there?

If so, I suspect your host's done something, like upgrading a server, or something. Maybe they've not given you full file ownership and/or enabled the crap that is mod_security.

Ninjad! :P

Actually, if this is your site...

http://inthesulky.com/index.php

...I'm getting this:

Quote403 - Access Forbidden

You may have been prevented from viewing this site because your web browser details or internet address look very similar to those of known or suspected email address harvestors or malicious website 'crawlers'.

That makes me think that what I mentioned may, indeed, be the problem.

Thank you for the fast replies.

Yes, the files are all there when I ftp the server. The host has worked on it all morning, and they have been awesome since 2003 with me. I had other problems with other hosts, but this host is ace-host.net, where I moved the site in 2011 or 2012.

Yes, it is www.inthesulky.com  That 403 is one I made. Let me go turn off the .htaccess and see if that helps.

if you type in www.inthesulky.com/admin or www.inthesulky.com/pics you will get to the forum.

Where would I go to look at the php errors? I have a traumatic brain injury and am very forgetful, so if I knew this at one time, I forgot it. LOL

Your host can give it to you in a split second ;)

Or, check for a "error_log" file in your forum folder (this is usual in shared hosts)

www.inthesulky.com/admin

QuoteNot Found

The requested URL /admin was not found on this server.

I should get a "Permission denied" error, with that.

http://inthesulky.com/agreement.txt is there, though.

Out of curiosity, Have you got a recent backup you could restore?

LVGaryD

They backed it up to Saturday, but still nothing.

Yes, now the admin now screwed up. The error logs shows the last 300 entries, and looks like this

I'm sorry, but:
Quoteclient denied by server configuration: /home/lvgaryd/public_html/
There's nothing we can do for you. Your host has to check what's wrong.

This is strange, though:
QuoteFile does not exist: /home/lvgaryd/public_html/index.php

Some strange referers there....

Ok, I have an idea. The host put in an old backup. I am going to attempt to put it back to today's configuration to see if that helps.

i recently had a similar issue when my host had some issues, when I looked I saw my settings.php was empty and I mean fully empty, so can I maybe suggest you look at this file to see if it has data in it.

I turned off the .htaccess files to test that theory. Still the same results.

Checked it. It is not empty.

One thing I think I may have discovered though is that the index.php file shows 2.07, but I think the server upgraded to 2.08 before I could upgrade the forum through the administrator section. Maybe this is causing my grief???

kat

Hmmm... Strangely enough, that file, in the v2.0.8 install does happen to have v2.0.8 in it.

Might be worth trying.

I've attached said file, to save you messing around, finding it.

Illori

If any mods are installed using that file will cause a headache and make many of them stop functioning fully

LVGaryD

Well we are making significant progress (I think). I contacted the web host again and said that someone with smf said something HAD to have been updated last night for it to suddenly stop. Sure enough, they had updated something....something for Wordpress that apparently interfered with the operation of smf.

Anyway my forum comes up now if you go to www.inthesulky.com/index.php

I can't really use anything, but have gotten the following message, probably due to the forum being uploaded from Saturday's backup:

Incorrect key file for table './lvgaryd_smf2/smf_members.MYI'; try to repair it
File: /home/lvgaryd/public_html/Sources/Subs.php
Line: 544

Note: It appears that your database may require an upgrade. Your forum's files are currently at version SMF 2.0.7, while your database is at version 2.0.2. The above error might possibly go away if you execute the latest version of upgrade.php.


Trouble is, I cannot update because I cannot get into the admin section. Now what?

LiroyvH

Run a repair on that table from phpMyAdmin. You should be able to find that in the control panel of your host, usually.

Yes, Wordpress will indeed screw up a forum installation if some of the supposed "security" addons are  used.

This has been a very aggravating day. Thank you all so much for your help. I am an idiot among geniuses!

For some reason, I cannot get into PHP my Admin. I did do a database repair in My SQL databases. It is still not allowing me to upgrade the site to .20.8 because of the database needing upgraded.

At least the forum is up and running finally. Hopefully I will get it totally fixed later. This has been driving me crazy since 6:30 am.   :o

Kindred

Do not worry about the database version message... Nothing has changed in the database since 2.0.3 or before...

Now I am getting this message when I attempt to upgrade to 2.0.8:

Forget that "Note", it's wrong and annoying.

For the rest, it's self explanatory... Your MySQL connection dropped. That's a server issue...

Ace-host is my host, but the server connection never really dropped. I was/am still connected.

Still cannot figure out why it is not allowing me to upgrade to 2.0.8.

LVGaryD

I just ran it three times in a row and it worked on the third time. Now upgraded.  ;D

Thank you all so very much!
