OK. I did get my site back after editing database directly for php debug. I was not able to get recovery.php page, just blank one.
What I noticed though was, somehow I had gzip turned on!? Don't know how, don't ask me. But here it is to what I did to get php debug on in PHPMyAdmin.
Possibly you can use this sql line, but be warned, make database backup before you touch your databases:
Change XOOPS to your database extension you named when installed (something what is in front of every table in format somename_config).
Quote:
UPDATE `xoops_config` SET `conf_value` = 'a:1:{i:1;s:1:"0";}' WHERE `conf_id` =19 LIMIT 1 ;
Or you can manually (safer) achieve:
In phpmyadmin go to your XOOPS database click Structure.
Find xoops_config and click on little icon Browse
Row 19 should be debug_mode it will say something like a:1:{i:0;s:1:"0";} if i=0 then debug is OFF, you need to turn it on.
Click Edit icon and in conf_value change 0 to 1 and Click GO.
Voila! Site is back and PHP is ON. Disable gzip and you can safely turn off PHP. (Hopefully

)
The other way could be turn off gzip:
Quote:
UPDATE `xoops_config` SET `conf_value` = '0' WHERE `conf_id` =14 LIMIT 1 ;
or in xoops_config click Browse, in row 14 if it's 1, click Edit and in next screen under conf_value change to 0 then click GO.
I'll keep an eye on this thread. Hope it works.
