Seems my phpBB script has mucked up somewhere.<br /><br />To rectify parse problems etc, is it possible to just trash the current (errored) phpBB folder of files and untar another new in the same location? <br /><br />Databases are all correct.<br /><br />Wayne<!--content-->
Wayne,<br /><br />I havent done that with phpBB but I have done it with osCommerce. The end result was just fine. If you have customized the files you are replacing you will need to redo it though.<!--content-->
As Rob said, you should be just fine. I've done that myself a couple of times and had no problems at all.<br /><br />And, again as Rob said, if you had some modified files, you'll have to redo the modifications.<br /><br />Hope you manage to get everything working again <img src="http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /><!--content-->
Thanx for your help last week.<br /><br />I did a back up, then trashed the phpbb folder and untared a new one in place of the old phpbb and wulla!!! all worked well.<br /><br />Fantastic to have things working again.<br /><br />Regards, Wayne Rock Sign<!--content-->
Glad you managed to get it working again <img src="http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /><!--content-->
couldn't you just go into phpmyadmin and repair the database? Mind you I am not an expert, and not fully sure that it would work. But have you thought about that?<!--content-->
The database wasnt the issue, one of the pages wasnt working, or that's what I gathered from the post. Replacing that page would fix the problem.<!--content-->
As Rob said, seemed to be a page problem...I had been hacking some code when it screwed up, I then cpoied and pasted from a native code but that didnt work.<br /><br />In the end, replacing the whole top plate file did the trick. The bottom side db was fine.<br /><br />Thanx for all the input.<br /><br />I`ll be back...later than sooner hopefully.<br /><br />Wayne <img src="http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ph34r:" border="0" alt="ph34r.gif" /><!--content-->
