My site recently got hit with the wordpress virus, which infected all my site php files. I reuploaded the forum files to my site, but now I'm getting errors in the admin cpanel. Any idea how I can fix this? At the moment, I can't even log into the admin panel. Thanks in advance.

Can you try uploading a fresh copy of ./inc/config.php, make sure though that you fill out the MySQL details etc. in it.
No need to do that.
There is a white space before the <?php delimiter in the inc/config.php file. Open this up in a text editor in cPanel and remove ALL white spaces or gaps before <?php at the top of the file.
As far as I can tell, my config.php file looks normal. Any idea what could be wrong? I replaced sql login info with x's intentionally for obvious reasons. Thanks again.

Deleting it and making it again would be easiest. I assume you're opening this in notepad, there's hidden characters that are causing a problem. Use wordpad, not notepad, and remake it: [wiki]Inc/config.php[/wiki]
Actually, I'm looking at it in wordpad now and it looks exactly the same. No hidden or extra characters in it anywhere. I'll try using a new one and remaking it just to be sure though. Thanks.
Edit: I've just tried making a new config.php file and uploaded it to my site, but I'm still getting those errors.
What MyBB version are you running??
I've updated to the latest release.
There's something wrong with that file somewhere. Can you PM me FTP login details??
