WP Super Cache sometimes ignites a blank Home Page! Need to restart Apache (4 posts)

    Hi all,

    here's my problem:

    with Super Cache enabled, the home page of my site sometimes gets completely blank. I can't find what triggers this behavior, it may happen twice a day, sometimes more than that. When this thing happens, the rest of the blog is loading super correctly and in a very fast way. The problem is limited to the home page.

    If I turn OFF Super Cache (not disabling the plugin, just selecting OFF from the panel) the home page goes a little nuts. It loads again but it stops before loading the sidebars and the footer.

    Here's the way I solve the problem (but it doesn't prevent the problem from happening again, obviously):

    I log into my server administration panel (The site is on a dedicated server) and I restart the Apache webserver. After that, it's all back to normal.

    Sometimes when I restart just after discovering the blank page, with Wp-SuperCache still ON, the Apache restart isn't enough and the white page persists.

    In that case i Turn OFF Wp Super Cache (the home page goes nuts) I restart Apache, (the site goes back to normal) and then I turn Wp Super Cache ON again.

    So, someone has a hint of what's going on here?

    Hi camillomiller,

    I have the same problem, but to temporally solve the problem just clear the cache and the homepage will be ok.

    Still nobody has the answer to this issue, but there are aldready some topics: topic 1, topic 2. About this.

    Hope we'll a fix soon.

    I had a similar problem recently. Every single page of my blog turned up blank when I tried to access it, even wp-login and admin so I had no way of getting to the dashboard. I hadn't touched to blog for about a week and I didn't do any upgrades recently so this came totally by surprise. It took me an hour to find the cause which was wp-cache. I had to use ftp to deleted that plugin and the cache, everything went back to normal afterwards.

    Was your blog hacked? Did anything show in your error_log?
