After webserver reset S9Y does not use template as before

Post by trendquest »

Hi all,

hope anyone has an idea how I could fix this quick:
My hostingprovider has set up their client webservers as completely new after having had an attack by crackers/hackers.

Problem: After this complete webserver reset S9Y does not use the needed template as before.

S9Y-Version: 1.4.1
Template: Individual/Custom, by Yelloled

What could be solution?
SAFE MODE: OFF?
All files and directories as read-write-execute / 777 ?


Thank you for your help!

Hi!

You should ask your provider what exactly he did, so that we can check. Without this, it's impossible to get a clear sight in my crystal ball here, it could be anything.

Check if all files exist, if all files are readable, the necessary s9y files/dirs are writable (check s9y.org FAQ)...

Regards,
Garvin

Hi Garvin,

thank you for your help and comment.

Since the client server had been hacked/cracked, it turned out that some files inside the template folder were also missing since having been infected/attacked as well. I replaced the template folder with an older one and kind of re-fixed some newer changes to the older css.
(well, now it is definitely time to make the planned smaller relaunch...)


Thanx and take care!
