Weird Problem

[Spal7e]

My domain is www.xl.exofire.net and my site (php nuke) is www.xl.exofire.net/Site

Today when i tried visiting site, all i get is a blank page with "‹" on top left. if u go to www.xl.exofire.net/Site ull see what i mean. No part of the site is working except the splash page (www.xl.exofire.net). Can anyone fill me in on whats wrong?

i can still access cpanel and ftp and the files are all there and so are the tables and php nuke installation.

Edit: I just checked the files from a previous backup and compared to the files currently in my directory and i noticed that this new file was there which wasnt there before. superSecretHomeDirScript.php is what its called. Could the site have been hacked?

is that whats causing the site to not function? if yes, how long till sites are restored?

 

[Brandon]

I am not sure, because when I run a php script on my site on the free server, it works

Example: http://free.status.x10hosting.com/mysql.php

 

[Spal7e]

thats odd. i guess we'll have to wait till corey is done with that script testing and see =/

 

[Corey]

Your site works for me?

Hmm, I can't re-produce it, when I go to the pages they all work.

 

[Spal7e]

its not working for me. i get the same thing as above ss. loads of my clan mates are also trying to access it and they all getting same thing.

If you're using gzip try shutting it off.

 

[Spal7e]

dont kno how to use gzip and i never touched a setting to do with gzip so im guessing its disabled (unless its enabled by default?)

I had the same problem.( mikek.x10hosting.com).

Switching off GZip compression fixed it.

To switch off GZip compression when you cant access your site, the setting is either in a file called config.php or similar or it is stored in the database.

Yep i can confirm that gzip is the problem, my forums and gallery were not working , i disabled gzip and now everything is working again

 

[Spal7e]

My GZip was disabled and still is but the site still doesnt work. neither do the forums.

Did you check your config.php? it is enabled by default!

 

[Spal7e]

i checked through phpmyadmin and under nuke_bbconfig gzip is disabled. is there any other place where i should check to see if its enabled?

i got the same problem at my forums , so i decided to back it up and the story there at my topic of (( A tech Qestion))

 

[Brandon]

Go to your php-nuke main directorey, a file called "config.php" should exist, fine an instance of gzip in there and disable it.

 

[Death Zone]

Thanks very much , but what about my data base problem ? at the topic with title (( A tech Qestion )

 

[Spal7e]

there is no instance of gzip on my config.php file. its just the following:

if (stristr(htmlentities($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']), "config.php")) {
Header("Location: index.php");
die();
}
 
$dbhost = 
$dbuname = 
$dbpass = 
$dbname = 
$prefix = 
$user_prefix = 
$dbtype = 
$sitekey = 
$gfx_chk = 0;
$subscription_url = "";
$admin_file = "admin";
$tipath = "images/topics/";
$nuke_editor = 1;
$display_errors = false;
 
$prefix = empty($user_prefix) ? $prefix : $user_prefix;
