Blank Magento Homepage

    My Magento website stopped working all of the sudden. Now it just shows a blank page: www.mywheelrepair.com

    The blog (WordPress) seems to be working somewhat fine, but it does show a parse error at the end of the page: blog.mywheelrepair.com

    I think there is a connection in the errors, although the main website is in Magento and the blog is in Wordpress.

    Nothing happens "all of a sudden" - SOMETHING has been done. Either you upgraded something, installed a plugin, removed a plugin, edited some code, or the host did something to the server, upgraded something, changed something - SOMETHING must have been done to create "sudden" errors.
    Besides, there's no "parse error" at the blog - perhaps you're logged in? That might return different results.
    The Magento-page, however, has an error in the prolog - ie, it's not even parsing correctly. This might have to do with a config-error, or an error in a heading-template file, or something similar.

    Whoa you definitely stuffed up something. When I visit that site its trying to run the updater to install a new version. That is bad, very bad.

    Without some access it would take a while to debug this one.

    Check app>etc>config.xml and see what is going on if anything different.

    Also, see if you have maintenance flag in your root folder. Do not, I repeat, do not mess with updating that from /downloader.

    What I am seeing currently is an apache issue. Almost like the host updated php without telling anyone.

    Any hoo. If you can flesh it out I am happy to take a look. I have to mess with Magento on a daily basis but I have not seen that sort of issue since around the 1.3 branch
