In reply to: [an error occurred while processing this directive]Wow — I do run zone alarm, although it never did anything like this before. Do you have any idea how I might tweak ZA to try to address that?

In reply to: [an error occurred while processing this directive]For whatever it is worth, I am unable to reach my phpmyadmin page through the control panel. I was having trouble doing that last night as well.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: [an error occurred while processing this directive]It is a very strange situation. Last night Bluehost worked on it for a long time, and then concluded it was not a db problem, but a wordpress problem. So, this morning, I completely reinstalled WP 2.1, after first deleting every plug in and theme I had on my old set up. After I first did that I got a DB error message, but created a new user and modified my config file, and the blog reappeared.
Unfortunately, when I tried to access the admin area, it refused to let me in. Its not that I get a screen or anything. Instead, when I click on admin, it tries to connect with the site, but never succeeds. And then, several minutes later, it reverts to what you will see now if you go there, which I think of as the white screen of death.
I don’t know where to go. WP 2.1 has been completely reinstalled, with no plugins or themes other than what it came with, yet the problem persists. Any thoughts?

In reply to: [an error occurred while processing this directive]Hmmm. Ok, the latest. Bluehost found that all of my databases were corrupt (including the non-WP databases), and fixed them, so the site is back up. I still can’t log in, however. When I try, it just grinds away and does nothing, which is what it was doing right before it crashed last time. So I’m uncertain what this means — if I need to reinstall some WP files related to admin or log in, or what.
To summarize, this what has happened:
1. For several days I got a database error message;
2. Earlier this evening another tech at bluehost helped me overcome that by adding another mysql user.
3. A few minutes after the site came back up, it crashed again as I was trying to log in.
4. After the last tech repaired the DBs, the site is back up, but it is still not letting me log in. I assme that is something in the WP installation, but I don’t know what.
Any thoughts?

In reply to: [an error occurred while processing this directive]Thank you, Varkyl. I’m on the phone with bluehost now, and the tech is trying to figure out if he can cut the db out of the last backup, which was at 10:30 this morning. That will be after the fantastico installation though. So, one way or another, I should have a recent backup fairly soon. I hope. 🙂
Where do you think it would need to go next?
many thanks!
