Help recovering

[Ozmooseus]

Hi,

 

I was attempting some major changes to my live store, which ended up a disaster. Not having time to sort it out, I decided to revert back to my backup files. I deleted all files, dropped the tables from the database, imported my backup database successfully (via PhpMyAdmin) and then restored the osc files from a good backup.

 

The store looks and works fine, but when accessing admin, the screen is blank ,no errors.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Cheers,

Ryan.

Sometimes you get a blank screen when there is an error but display_errors is not enabled.

 

You can enable display_errors in your .htaccess file as follows:

 

php_flag display_errors on

Your host should offer some error log files. Look in your hosts cPanel if you have one for the error logs.

You must have a newer version of PHP. Try this instead:

 

php_value display_errors On

Thanks Guys,

 

Error log showed a contrib file missing (security.php). Dragged it over and all is now fixed. Not sure why my backup did not transfer it (manual transfers using FileZilla) . Next time I will compare the folders first with winmerge.

 

Thanks heaps for tips.
