    My site is not working! What is wrong? Database is saved but we can't get it back up. It's not even in the forum directory anymore.

    www.centralwx.com

    At first it was Index/Forums and punch of folders but now I get
    Warning: main

    (/home/cenwx/public_html/forum/ips_kernel/class_converge.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/cenwx/public_html/forum/index.php on line 64

    The database will not be visible through FTP if that's what you mean.

    You have to upload it trough your phpmyadmin (if your provider provides it).

    Right but at first it said Forums/Index with a bunch of files with the logo folders. It's not even in forum directory. Did someone hack it? We tried to upload database on server from back-up file but it's not working.

    I wouldn't know if you were hacked, but the system seems to have lost index.php

    try restoring that first from your backup and see what happens.

    the file:
    /home/cenwx/public_html/forum/ips_kernel/class_converge.php

    doesn't exist. index.php is trying to pull data from that file, and it's either being denied permission, the file doesn't exist, or there's no data in the file. PHP errors are very vague.

    Can you confirm the file does in fact exist?

    Sorry, you are right.

    The requested URL /forum/ips_kernel/class_converge.php was not found on this server.

    Ok, so you have to upload all your files again and upload your database through phpmyadmin.
    phpmyadmin should be installed in your service.

    Go to your control panel and search for the phpmyadmin icon. Once there, select your database and find the menu "import"

    there you will upload your database file.
    Important: this may not be necessary if your database hasn't been removed.

    If you need remote website backups, you might try our service. We *do* backup the database as well, so you have a copy safely stashed.

    PM me if you need help with restoring your site or more info.

    Q. Warning Failed to open stream

    A. Warning: main(/publish.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/somewhere/textpattern/index.php on line 12

    These and similar errors are usually caused by:

    * A missing or empty config.php file
    * Missing or empty subdirectories
    * Missing .php files
    * An incorrect ‘txpath’ setting in config.php

    Make sure you’ve uploaded the complete contents of the Textpattern .zip/.tar.gz file to the correct location, and that your config.php settings are correct.
