    [http://top10greenbuildingproducts.com/](http://top10greenbuildingproducts.com/)
 * Something about line 22 in db.php …. what could be causing that?
 * Thanks!

 * It’s a server configuration issue. Contact your hosts.

 * Thanks … unfortunately I’m stuck in a zero support hole with media temple (switching
   soon, god willing). Any clue what it really means? a path wrong? A permissions
   thing?

 * The server is locked down too tightly. Looks like you can’t check for a file 
   outside of the web root. Incidentally, what is a file called db.php doing in 
   the wp-content folder? Is this a custom script of yours?

 * Good question… no idea! I inherited the site. … that’s not a standard WP file?

 * Ah ha… thanks for helping. Looks like it was some legacy from a hosting provider.
   There was some hidden stuff in the plugins folder… deleted, and problem gone!
