My WordPress disappeared!

  • But everything is there! All files, all folders, the db with all tables and all data, but the browser returns NOTHING, this is the sad source:

    <!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 just cant understand whats happening. Could it be that my .htaccess is screwed up? Her it is:

    # -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

    My WordPress was 2.1 and everything worked perfect until something odd happened. I don’t have any clue…please…hints?

    Hm. First of all, this is incomplete:

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

    I would use the doctype from one of the other themes to ensure that it will display properly, but the doctype is not even “closed” (has no closing angle bracket). As well, this is an HTML 4.0 doctype, rather than the XHTML doctype used by WordPress.

    I’d ensure that your code is right first.

    Ok, right now – its showing NOTHING. A blank source! lol

    Yes…a completely blank source. No wonder I wonder..

    If this is it I better remove every trace of WP and reinstall everything. Is it possible to use the old DB, then?

    “Is it possible to use the old DB, then?”
    Yes – just use the same wp-config.php.
    When all the files are re-installed, just run the upgrade script.

    It looks like a problem with your theme, though. Did you try the default theme or another one?

    Is it possible to change theme preferences when I can’t get any output from my browser?

    Ftp to your themes folder and delete current theme. It should revert to default theme and hopefully let you in.
