Post subject: SOLVED - All Pages In My Forum Are Now Empty (blank)

Something happened to my forum. Now any PHP page does not load anything. When I go to any php page I get a blank page. If I go to "view source" I only get this:

Code: [Hide] [Select]

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<HTML><HEAD>

<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"></HEAD>

<BODY></BODY></HTML>

I can see any other html page under my domain, but no the php ones. Also, I have two other forums for testing purpose below the same domain and both are working well. So I thign is not my hosting company.

I cannot enter into ACP so I can reset any suspicious value.

I don't know if this can be a theme, style, db, or config issue.

I will thank any help you can bring me on this.

The only thing I did is change something in the StyleMod screen. (look at picture)

Also, I did aware that some values had old values (from phpBB Plus) for example, the default style was subSilver but I dont have that style.

The thing is that I understood this just a second after I press the sumit button.

After the "caos", I try to look in DB and change the style value from subSilver to mg_themes in the config table, but that didn't solved the problem. I can't find the other value in the config table.

I restored the config table but the problem continues. I don't remember touching anything when the problems occurred. In fact, I think I was viewing the forum and a few minutes later, boom! When I want to enter again, all is blank.

Is there a way to debug what happen with the php file when I call it in my browser? I need to know what is causing the problem but the page don't throw any messages or errors.

Any suggestions?

Ok, solved. Uff !!

After cleaning the cache and a few tables and files restored, I found this post that saved my life.

1.

open "includes/functions_categories_hierarchy.PHP"

Find:

Code: [Hide] [Select]
Code: [Show]
define('CACHE_TREE', true);
//define('CACHE_WORDS', true);
define('CACHE_THEMES', true);

replace:

Code: [Hide] [Select]
Code: [Show]
//define('CACHE_TREE', true);
//define('CACHE_WORDS', true);
//define('CACHE_THEMES', true);

2.

replace: includes/def_themes.php, includes/def_tree.php, includes/def_words.php by the originals files.

3.

Delete cache files.

First, I did comment the cache variables in functions_categories_hierarchy.PHP and that waked up the forum, so I understood that def_themes or def_tree may be corrupted. Then I did replace them with the original ones and uncomment the variables in functions_categories_hierarchy.PHP.

After that, all is working like a charm right now.

Thanks m740 and thanks a lot for your asistance Zuker.
