Weird EE problem!

[karim]

Hi,

I'm having this really weird behaviour with EE. Accessing my gallery from the index page gives me a "can’t open the page “http://karimsahai.com/gallery/index.php” because it could not load any data from this location." error.

If I access a particular photo in the browser with its direct url, it works fine, but I can't seem to be able to access my gallery like before, from the index page... Everything worked perfectly a few hours ago. I haven't changed a thing!

Can someone please try this link http://karimsahai.com and let me know if they can see the gallery? Thanks a lot.

ks.

Looks like some server configuration problem or it can be truncated files, too.

I can open http://karimsahai.com/gallery/photo.php which seems to work fine. Perhaps you should try to upload original EE files again, the database is clearly not affected by this problem.

... could it be that files have become corrupted, if that's what it is? Nothing have been changed, edited, uploaded or deleted in the past 24 hours. Is there a way to find out if any ee file has been modified?

ps. this is a wild question, but how are login+passwords for this EE forum stored Pekka?

Perhaps your server support have updated to Apache 2, I've seen these problems with badly done server updates (i.e. old php and new Apache do not match), or as simply some automatic batch job gone bad in server. Try uploading new .php files to EE and see if that does help.

To track PHP errors insert

error_reporting (E_ALL);

as first command in each file (after line <?php ). This will reveal all PHP errors which may be hidden by server configuration.

They are stored here by PhpBB in database with MD5 format (which means even I can not use/know them). Login is stored as session id into cookie on your machine. About the same method is used in EE, but in even more secure way.
