Errant character making db choke? |
| Message Text |
My client which uses one of my three licenses westchesterlax.com was doing some spring cleaning...editing categories and such and suddenly the site was blank.
At first I thought it might that they didn't regenerate counters or somehow put a strange character into an edit that is causing the entire site including the admin section to go blank...
I went to the support section and tried all that was suggest about blank screen issues and that did not fix anything.
I also installed an old old (too old to be really useful) back up and managed to get it to somewhat function to this tells me there might be some errant character screwing up the script OR the counters need to be regenerated.
I cannot regenerate counters because of course the admin area is blank too. I also can't find the labeled field in the db (if it exists) to set this number manually.(I've been looking, hoping this was the problem)
Can you list some of the keyboard characters entered in a title or description field that could make the database choke? I've been searching but there are a ton of links and categories and I'm doing this cluster F$ck fix pro bono so my time is limited to search for this needle.
I'm sorry ahead of time for not reprimanding my client by telling him to make a freaking back up before he sweeps house. 
Help!
Various facts:
client does not have ftp access, only admin access through the browser to edit the site. He only edits/adds/deletes links/categories I told him not to touch the settings.
THANKS AGAIN! WSN LINKS ROCKS. |
