   I have been using wordpress on a site of mine (http://blog.armazine.com).
   Today morning i was working with some theme tweaking when suddenly, the whole page goes blank (white color). I cant access the blog now. Not even the admin pages. When i try to, all i get is the blank page. I am distraught. I dunno whats happened or why it suddenly happened.

   One thing I feel is that, i had uploaded a new theme and its plugins clashed with the plugins of the setup I had before. I dunno if that can be a reason.

   So the only way i could do anything to save my data was to download the whole folder through FTP. I even backed up the MySQL database with the help of phpmyadmin.

   I downloaded and installed(through FTP) the latest of wordpress, but same result. Blank page. If you visit the site now, you will understand what i am saying.

   What will i do now?

   I would really appreciate help from you guys. Thanks

   Warning: require(/home/armazine/public_html/blog/wp-includes/compat.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/armazine/public_html/blog/wp-settings.php on line 265

   Try re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh download of WordPress

   Yes, i tried that. but still not working. Now i don't get any error messages. I deleted the folder of the theme i was using, hoping wordpress would identify the default. I even renamed the plugins folder.
   But still the same blank page... any clues? :(

   I reuploaded all the wordpress files again. And now i got to the dash board. I deleted the theme i was using, so like that, managed to revert to the default theme. But now thing is, whenever i add/change the theme, i get the blank page. And when that happens, i move onto the FTP, delete the theme and i click 'Go Back" on the browser to remain on the dashboard. (If i click anything else during this time, the whole 'blank page' situation happens again.)

   After waiting for some time, i find the stability returning. Now i dunno how to change the themes or do any major tweaking. It seems very risky now. hmm .. :(
   Any ideas?

   Have you tried:

   - deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

   - resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.
