Hey guys, I have a big problem since I Upgrade to version 4.0, the main domain dont work or show as it only show a white page.

For example if you go to www.dish911.info it comes a WHITE page and if you go to the /forum.php works great but my concern is that many users cant get into the page through google or any other search engine.

I even had to send a massive email to let users know to get into the page by /forum.php until I resolve this issue.

Anyone knows the reason why this is happening?

Thanks

Was there information on that landing page before? If not you could modify the page from...

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>

to...

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type>
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="1; URL=http://www.911dish.info/forum.php"><HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>

This should redirect the landing page to the /forum.php page instead of index.htm/index.html etc. that most browser's default to.

I had before vb_advance but i think i uninstalled that wrong and now it show me an error on the AdminCP that looks like the attachment below. I dont know if that will cause that and dont know how to fix that from the data base by deleting those tables.

another question is, just in case i dont fix it like adding an additional index.php since i did and it wont pop up using the main domain showed above, where do I add that code you mention above?

Thanks for the help

What is you copy the information from forum.php to a new index.php?

Dunno if it will work, but worth a try.

Thanks for the input but I had already try that.

Any other suggestions?

I have try this and works only on the /index.php file but the main root domain still a white page and nothing else.

Anyone in this forum full of coders know what this problem can be?
The root domain is not showing but a white page only. the only thing working at my board is the /forum.php [url]
