Title: COrrupt WordPress Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # COrrupt WordPress * [vincentkw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vincentkw/) * (@vincentkw) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/corrupt-wordpress/) * Hello, I have a problem with a wordpress site. It started getting an error when you would go to the site instead of the front page it would show an error in the function.php on line 119. SO I ftp to the site and I replaced the function. php file with the original and that fixed it for a couple of days. Then it went back to the same error, so I tried again and this time it didn’t fix it. Now when I go to the site it goes to a blank page with a 0 in the upper left corner. Any idea’s on what to do?

If you have backups then revert to the last known clean back up. If your host can help ask them to. They will be happy to help to keep their servers clean. * if all that fails, start again, and remember to keep backups all the time!!! * [tobanpenner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tobanpenner/) * (@tobanpenner) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/corrupt-wordpress/#post-3444631) * Hello, I’ve had the same error on a site that I’m working on (chicktime.com). * [11-Apr-2013 10:24:22 America/Chicago] PHP Warning: require(ABSPATHWPINC/option. php) [[function.require](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/corrupt-wordpress/function.require?output_format=md)]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /mnt/stor3-wc2-dfw1/504110/ 762059/www.chicktime.com/web/content/wp-includes/functions.php on line 8 * I ran the site through [http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/scanner/](http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/scanner/) [http://www.unmaskparasites.com/](http://www.unmaskparasites.com/) It came up empty for viruses.
