MyBB Community Forums

I recently upgraded to a VPS account from shared hosting, my CPanel account was restored from a backup on shared hosting server, now MyBB is not loading theme and I get a blank page while accessing the admin panel, I tried upgrading but no success. Pls. help, the forum URL - http://forum.rapidsharetools.com/

Thanks

I can't seem to even resolve the IP.
Are you sure you've set up your domain/nameservers properly?

Try using a proxy - www.hidemyass.com

Well, that's interesting. I got a successful reply when pinging from my server. So I tried using an SSH tunnel through my server, but it still didn't work, oddly enough.

Tried a web proxy, and, oddly, it works. But web proxies mangle all the data, so it's all messed up anyways.


Anyway, from your description, I'm guessing it's because you've changed URLs, and haven't updated the board URL. Access the AdminCP directly (not via the AdminCP link on your board), for example, http://forum.rapidsharetools.com/admin (assuming your admin directory is "admin") and make sure the Board URL is correct.

Off-topic:
I presume you're site is about ways to bypass Rapidshare? Because I am also on a VPS server, and have my own Rapidshare/Megaupload Premium download link generators (I'm surprised that others across the internet don't really work), however, they're private because people tend to multi-thread when downloading off those, and that really screws up Apache on a VPS server...

Thanks for the reply, the URL is same as was on the old host and since it was a CPanel to Cpanel backup restoration it is preserving all settings, I tried accessing the admin panel the way you instructed but same blank page .

http://forum.rapidsharetools.com/css.php?theme=2

Your css.php has corrupted in some way and is doing a force download to anyone who tries to access it. Can you try uploading the file again?

I overwrote the file and checked its content after overwriting it seems fine, can it be something to do with mime types ???

Anybody Pls. ??

I happen to be on a public computer at the moment, and can access the site.

When trying to access the CSS file, I get a 0 sized reply - seems like your server isn't sending the file properly.

First, I'd check that the file css.php exists, and that it's security settings are set right.
If it doesn't work, try reinstalling the theme, and also try changing the storage method of CSS to CSS files.

How to do that, BTW all other site CSS are loading fine except the forum, can I backup the DB, do a fresh install and restore ?
