Corrupt FORUM

[Mike63]

Hi folks . . . I have had this FORUM since maybe 2004 or so.  2 days ago I was banning a fellow from the FORUM and maybe an hour or so later my FORUM gave me the Screen Shot below.

I have worked at it for maybe 2 days to fix and I have not been able to accomplish anything.  I am 1 of the 2 administrators on the FORUM.

HELP - HELP - HELP!!!

Are you saying you cannot login or others cannot login or all guests get this?

[Mike63]

Please help if you can!

You going to need to clear your bans from the database. Do you have access to phpmyadmin?

[Mike63]

No, I do not . . . I cannot get off of the page I sent in my first post!

I misspelled the URL in my later post . . . here it is . . . this is ALL I can get to:

https://tbas1.com/forum/index.php

Thanks!

Do you have access to ftp? I could write a script that would clear all bans on your site.

[Mike63]

 . . . make that hxxp in to    http://

I have no idea why the xx showed up . . . sorry!

Mike

[Mike63]

My files on the website are put on with FTP . . . YES!!!

Mike

[Mike63]

 . . . would I put your script somehow into the "forum" folder on my machine and upload it into the forum files on the server???

Mike

[Mike63]

This is probably a stupid question but where would I put your script???  I would tank you a million for doing it but I really have no clue where to put it.  Obviously I would not just "upload" it somewhere???

Sorry for being so stupid!

Mike

[vbgamer45]

You would upload it to the root directory of your forum where SSI.php is.
Then run script via browser by pointing to the url.

Clear bans script attached. Warning this really does clear all ban entries,groups, ban logs.

[Mike63]

That's it? . . . Upload it to the server where the SSI.php is and then point to the URL when I go to the FORUM site???

Let me try it!!

Mike

[Mike63]

Holy Mackrel . . . TOTALLY FIXED!!!!!

You are worth $100000000000000000000000000000000 . . . I thank you so much!!!

Now . . . I guess I have 0 bans . . . would you anticipate any problems with that?

Again . . . THANKS SO MUCH!!!!

Mike

[vbgamer45]

Glad to help take off like 25 zeros lol

No issues with zero bans. Just if you have trouble makers reban them again.

[Mike63]

 . . . another minor problem I hope!!!

When I went to the FORUM EVERYTHING was GREAT EXCEPT . . . at the top in a PINK BOX it said
"!! MAJOR SECURITY RISK:You have not removed install.php!"

What do I do to get rid of that . . . delete the install.php???

Mike

[Mike63]

I deleted the install.php from the server and all is now FINE!!!!!

AGAIN and AGAIN . .  thanks a million!!!

Mike Jacobs

[Mike63]
