[SOLVED] site stops before showing forum-content

php version: 2.0.22
integramod 1.41
advanced knowledge

What was done before the problem appeared?
A turkish hacker destroyed my forum in september (132) - I installed the IM2.0 rc3 and used a completely new db. Today I updated my software to im 141- and linked the old DB to the system.
Updated means: I copied all data from the 141-package and uploaded it to my server. After that, I run the update-.script.

What was done to try to solve the problem?
I searched trough the support-f.
But my problem has (as it seems to me) nothing to do with the white-screen-bug, or other caching problems!

http://www.wave-ahrensburg.de

it is kinda strange:

In the ACP i see all my forums. Even in the (now deactivated) def_tree all catogories are listed.
But when I run inde.php, the .script stops before showing the content. The same when running portal.php (since you delete the announcement, news or whatever related to categories/forum)

def_tree is deactivated; 666
Maybe it could be a template error? I tried Integra2 and BBLite.

I would be very happy, if someone could be so kind and help me out! :)

ok, I will try to specify my problem:

After 10hours of research I think the problem lies in the display of the category-template skript. But, it is shurely not a problem by the integramod-package itself, but somehow I could not overwrite all .scripts? So i tried again: Still I can see even the topics (like: http://www.wave-ahrensburg.de/viewtopic ... 0674#20674) but the categories will not show up! I uploaded block files from older versions, where the "show forum content" command is very strictly. Even that caused an "stop" of page processing.

My site stops only if the index.php or portal.php should include the forum categories. All other sites (including portal.php with special content trough ?page=x) went well. What could it be, causing a problem (without error messaging) in the process of reading the content from the def_tree.php or the database?

Is there anyone who could explain this process to me? I am sorry for my worse english; please be patience <img>

there is currently no update from IM2.0 rc3. This was a project from a different site and developer. There is currently a project underway to provide an upgrade path for all rc versions of IM2.

Thanks for your reply, Helterskelter!!!

But I think I get misunderstood:
I linked the OLD Database (so 1.32) with the new package and installed all content included in the download.
So, I ask myself, what could be the problem with including/showing the content of the forum? Is it maybe something with templates, or wrong content in the db (which is quite old: 1.32!)

Thanks for any hint!!!

Update in my process:

I searched now for at least 20hours in forums and other resources for instructions or background-knowledge. My problem right now is, that I do not know so much about the categorie-hirarchy mod.

Maybe you could have a look at:

http://www.wave-ahrensburg.de/portal.ph ... 23741b8120

I set a Portal-Block-Page which include the news and recent topics: The DB is working and I can read informations from the forum.

I worked in the "inde.php" so that this comes out:
http://www.wave-ahrensburg.de/index.php ... 23741b8120

My additional .scriptings are:
Code: Select all
 // display the index  echo "it is really working?!";$display = display_index($viewcatkey);  if (!isset($display))//-- fin mod : categories hierarchy ----------------------------------------------------------------  {     message_die(GENERAL_MESSAGE, $lang['No_forums']);}  


But it seems, that the function "display_..." is not working! In the index.php there are large parts commented - what is the meaning of this?! When I uncomment it, the page goes blank.
...

Could please someone help me? I do not get it...

do you have this problem with the default index.php and index_body.tpl?

yes.

Just to be shure, I downloaded the package again and just uploaded the index.php and the "fisubice"-template. Problem still occurs.

Maybe there is some db-content which directs the output? But shouldn't be then a error message?

addon:

Maybe it is helpfull to know, that my server is very restricted, due to the recent hacker-attack.
So, safe_mode is enabled and other options, too.

Could there be the possibility, that it depends on this?

it would appear that your db is incomplete. Ill sent you a PM.

Thank you all very much, Helterskelter!

I found the problem - it wasn't there, where I thought it would be,... but nevertheless, it is gone.

I found out, that the calendar is the bad thing, dunno why... chmod settings are all right, maybe a .scripting not compatible with the old db, or so. However, i just commented it, and now everything is working fine.

Puh.... over 24h of work, but now it's ok. Thank you!
