I was messing with my site today, trying to add .htaccess or get one to work. I need someone who can go through the error log and find what I screwed up. I will compensate. site is http://www.forexonlinelearning.com
[Tue Jan 22 17:13:07 2008] [alert] [client 68.179.130.255] /home/forexonl/.htaccess: Invalid command '<html>', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration thats what I keep seeing in my error log. any ideas?
First off, do what Webray says and rename your .htaccess file to something else. That will get your site to back to how it was before. Maybe post what is in your htaccess file here, if not, send it to me via PM and i'll take a look.
I dont even think it was my htaccess file, it was my config.inc.php file. I tried to add a .htaccess file, but it wouldnt let me. I dont know what I'm doing.
Use cPanel and then the File Manager and rename the .htaccess file to something else. What script are you running on that site?
[Tue Jan 22 17:13:07 2008] [alert] [client 68.179.130.255] /home/forexonl/.htaccess You posted that! Didn't you? Some hosts hide the .htaccess file.
Looks like I might have the problem solved. The host has a backup from last night at 10PM. Good enough.
