| by demonica on 2007/4/28 14:25:41 I changed the permissions on the cache folder and still am getting the same page. Oh well, at least I have gained some insight into how all those mysterious php files relate to each other (you'll guess I am no coder!). I looked through the admin.php file and found it referred to a file called mainpage.php, which defines how the XOOPS site is structured. My site is hosted at bluehost.com, which allows you to add up to 5 subdomains. I suspec this problem may have begun when I added a subdomain and a folder was automatically added to my /public_html directory. It is possible that something may have been overwritten in the XOOPS installation and that mainpage.php is pointing to the wrong place now. It is not as simple as removing the added folder - I tried that already. I will contact support at bluehost and maybe they can help me. |

| by demonica on 2007/4/28 2:48:17 Hmm. I assume you mean the cache folder in the public_html directory? I don't see a file admin_menu.php there - perhapss the problem is that it is not being generated. I forgot to mention above tthat if I respond "submit" to the prompt it takes me to a blank page. The permissions on the cache folder are currently drwxr-xr-x |

Try going to cache and deleting a file called admin_menu.php (or something like that, it is the only php file in the directory). Also check that the cache folder itself is writable. Deleting admin_menu.php often fixes problems with the menu (the file is remade automatically). Maybe yours got corrupted in upload or something. |
