going down hill fast; now posting.php white page (SOLVED)

[viragotech]

site worked great for a few min, now posting.php just show a white page, does not go back to the message, though message is still posted.

[Helter]

what host are you using now?
If you can view your php.ini, how much memory is available for scripts?
If you can, set this at 16meg

[viragotech]

Ok I got that done, set like it was on shared to 64M but still posting.php just stops at a blank page, the site did work fine for a bit. then all of a sudden.

though the post still shows up, if folks hit refresh you get dups.

ok I got master control, I set it to 128M

but it sitll happens.

why would it work ok for a bit, then stop?

[viragotech]

Ok strange side effect found.

posting.php doesn't hang when I make a new thread.

just made a new thread and it works normal.

other threads, no.

and they did work for a while first today.

[viragotech]

I can toss ya some coin Helter but this is the last full day I got to work on this, been in front of the computer 24/7 for over 2 weeks now and must get back to work.

If i have to I can open the site as is, post still show but something odd is out of place still and Im at aloss. have spent all night searching with no real answer.

Again, the site worked fine for a good 20 mins yeaterday am, then suddenly that happened.

have memory settings doubled now to 128megs.

more info, when you edit a post, it re-directs just fine back to the thread.

[viragotech]

I also wonder if this was a side effect of no memory at first, cause it did happen before I got that fixed.

something timed out and didn't write or..............

[viragotech]

Tried raising refresh time, maybe its not getting the post id in time.
no change. Edits must not need said data.



$db->sql_freeresult($result);

$template->assign_vars(array(
'META' => '<meta>')
);
$message .= '<br><br>' . sprintf($lang['Click_view_message'], '<a>', '</a>');
message_die(GENERAL_MESSAGE, $message);
}
else
{
redirect(append_sid("viewtopic.$phpEx?" . POST_TOPIC_URL . "=$topic_id", true));
}
}

If I may be so bold as to ask, but are you still trying to get a copy to work that a new host has transfered? Or are you trying one that you personally moved?

Reason I ask and I may be way off here, but I had a host move my site once and everything that could go wrong did go wrong. Luckily, I had a backup of the site right before it got moved as well as a copy of my database. I uploaded it, dumped my database using big dump and set permissions and I was good to go after that.

My apologies for jumping in on this but I see you having so many issues, I feel compelled to ask.

No we moved everything, 3 times now.

first try was with cable internet, took to long even then.
Then a guy showed up with T1 and we still had problems.

Then did it again with T1 but used SFTP to deal with the large file folder, with the album n file uploads.

still have good copies on the old server. I kept both account, just moved the forum.

[MWE_001]

Ahh ok well there goes my theory then. Back to the drawing board.

[viragotech]

Ok let face it, I don't know jack.

turns out, memory still ins't right.

Though php.ini and master setting for memory give php 128M to work with.

not until I turned the active user block back on today did I realize it.
[I hade thought it was the who's online block, which has been working fine since adjusting.]

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 3289403 bytes) in /home/vtfvpsx3/public_html/blocks/blocks_imp_users_visited.php on line 98

[viragotech]

Helter i put in that config.php line you had suggested.


ini_set('memory_limit','32M');

?>

no help, still get that error when recent visitors block is on, and blank page on post.

[viragotech]

ok memory problems all fixed, it was not using the php.ini even though it was set up, they have corrected the error.

now when the active user block is on, no more memory errors.

but still blank pages when you post, just stop at posting.php and does not forward back to the thread.

[viragotech]

more info, it looks as if threads that I started and only I post in, refresh right back to the thread.

this thread will work, and forwards back, but other don't.
Looks as if the refresh only works for me, when I make the only post.
