Strange Site Problem
Asked Modified Viewed 4,312 times
asked
Hi all.... I have another problem with one of my sites. It is:
http://thegatheringdawn.whisperwillow...willow.com
I checked db integrity: OK.
I checked all files thru ftp: No modification date changes.
I cleared my browser 'cookies and ALL offline content'.
I am still getting this 'view source' listing for /news.php immediately after clearing browser....
And of course just a blank white screen.
Any clues? To my knowledge there is nothing in fusion (w/o adding a mod), which has anything to do with Skype.....

I suggest you try re-uploading the files again. I tried to load http://thegatheringdawn.whisperwillow.com/images/smiley/pfft.gif, a smiley that should always be visible, but the images folder cannot be found. So there must be something wrong with the files that you tried to upload.

Hmmmm... thats funny; I can copy and paste that url into my browser and I see the smiley just fine...
New attempt to solve my problem:
I re-uploaded ALL FILES from a 6.01.12 fresh download (most of my changes are in the theme 'Warcraft' anyway), modded the version in the db to reflect 6.02 instead of 6.04 and I get exactly the same result. I am in a desperate panic here........ !!!! I CANNOT login by any means I have tried. I can't even pull up a custom page that is set for public view. I am facing the possibility of having to delete my DB, losing ALL my customer data and start over from scratch. I still get a blank white page and when I 'view source' this is all there is.
It seems like SOMEONE here, where this system was and is being developed, would be willing to try to help me!!

Another edit! Damn, I'm slow today. I didn't think to view-source of the maintenance page I managed to retrieve. (http://thegatheringdawn.whisperwillow.com/maintenance.php /slap self.
The problem.

This.
The default theme that is selected is something called "imc" at /themes/imc/... which gives me a pretty file not found.
Although I'll leave the below-original comments for you to bathe in my temporary stupidity, it should be a simple matter of going to your database in PHP MyAdmin, and flicking the Default theme to something else, eg:
UPDATE your_prefix_settings
SET theme = 'Warcraft'
That should allow you to log in. Past that, if any users have manually changed their personal theme to be the
(Edited, see below) I think that this is a PHP problem - something your host has done, not fusion.
If I try to load up the smiley that muscapaul mentioned, I can.
If I try to load up a styles.css from your theme, I can...
I can load up some .htm files from the tiny_mce files
but none of the PHP works?
You say you uploaded all the Fusion files again, and the only mods you made are in your theme
What happens if you use PHP Myadmin or similar to switch to another theme? Maybe it's in there?
Oops! Wait, my bad. Edit incoming!
You seem to have some bad code on your site... perhaps in a panel. I can open http://thegatheringdawn.whisperwillow...enance.php (maintenance.php which shows the header and a logon screen whatever the status of your site, and doesn't show any theme/panel that could be infected.)
and that works, so its not a PHP problem for your host as I first thought
Check your panels and your database is my suggestion. Maybe someone got into your site? It doesn't even have to be malicious, perhaps just a parse error?
As for the wierd empty page 'view source' code that you're getting with skype in it or something, I expect that's something your browser or your computer has created, just like in IE7 I get a strange empty page view-source code when I make a mistake in my PHP, in firefox I get just an empty view source (as I do with your website) and if I use "WGET" which is like an FTP client for HTTP which has absolutely nothing interfering with it, I get an empty file. Therefore, I am almost 100% that there is something stange in one of your files or in your database (panels/theme/anything) that is causing a Parse Error or something similar.
Check your Error Logs if you have them? Perhaps via. cpanel?

imc one, then that may have to be fixed, either via query or manual - that's in this forum somewhere.(Edited, see below) I think that this is a PHP problem - something your host has done, not fusion.

Tell ya what; I highly resent that remark! I maintain 5 websites and I am far from 'sitting here doing nothing'...
After digging deeper into phpMyadmin I found the problem; don't understand how it happened but I found it... the database became corrupted with info from another database (have to address the problem with my host), but in the meantime looks like I'm gonna have to delete the user base and start over; usernames/passwords/forum posts/ ... nothing matches.

So I suppose this thread can be closed as solved...

Maybe that explains it. I said in my first post that I thought that there was a theme selected that didn't exist, perhaps if it got mixed with someone else's (or perhaps another of your own) fusion site then that's what did it. If it was your host's fault, then have a massive go at them for effectivly screwwing over your entire community. Otherwise, grab a backup and try using that?
