    Had an unexplained failure on my blog that resulted in some errors relating to plugins (added debug to wp-config.php)
    Deleted plugins then just got a blank screen
    I then deleted and reinstalled (fantastico) after backing up my database and files
    With the fresh install I re-imported the old database and now I get just a blank screen again.
    How do I re-install to get my old posts? Is there something wrong with my database? the collation in the tables is latin1_swedish_ci seems a little strange but I’ve no idea.

    Installed again, and added all the pluggins that were there before and then re-installed the database but still have a completely blank url. Followed instructions from the codex. WHat am I doing wrong? Before I looked at the database when this error first arrose and I used the myphp repair function on the database the fields were not displaying o.k when checked. Do I have a corrupt database? When I view it it seems o.k, I can even see the posts. Here is a link to my zipped database.

    I’d deactivate all plugins, and update your peramlink structure.

    If necessary change to the WordPress Default Theme.

    Also, your wp_posts table has your posts so you should see those via phpMyAdmin or in your admin Posts->Edit screen.
