News 1.4 as homepage on XOOPS 2.2.3 = blank page with error

Hi all,
It was working fine, then I switched on RSS feeds (users were on too, so may have been other activity).

Now the site is blank with PHP debug message (I got that far):-
Quote:
Notice [PHP]: Undefined variable: xoopsConfig in file /home/content/m/a/r/mariners/html/xoops/html/modules/xcgal/language/english/modinfo.php line 97


Aside from it being more than a notice (ie. site is dead!) I do not know what is causing this. I've checked the php file in question, and the variable is there, all defined.

Ideas, anyone? My site is toast and the users are restless!!

First, calm down.

Second. Try to get another page as start page, will the site come back? Get to /recovery.php, login, then go to admin.php and make changes to your site in admin side.

That message is only notice and not related to what you have.

Heh - I am calm, thanks. Just a little baffled.

Rest of site works (I've redirected homepage to xcgal to give them something to look at), but news page still throwing blank page + Notify error. They primarily use it for news.

What other diagnoses can I try? I've got PHP debug on.

Go to server log and see what else it gives you? Like /var/log/httpd/ or something similar.

Why can't you disable RSS to see if it comes back?

goto the news module admin, and turn off rss feeds for the news..

i know it may not be the solution, but i just trying to eliminate a few things and seeing if it's actually the rss that caused the problem. at least it would narrow it down.

I had already done the upgrade, thanks.
Disabled RSS seemed to bring it back to life. Wish I could risk trying to repeat the problem to see if it really was that... maybe at my next maintenance window.

Thanks for the advice guys. Much appreciated.
