Site Hacked?

[Kimah72]

Thanks, I just sent the info needed! Sorry, I came here first before going to the other place.

I'm not sure where to put this or who to talk to but our site was hacked. We had 3.5 I think. I can't remember. I know there were emails sent with security issues and that we should upgrade, but apparently...

Thank you so much! That was it. I thought I was careful but my server likes to cut me off when I'm using my FTP program and a lot of times I miss a file or two. Now I know!

Everything is...

[Kimah72]

Ok! I will do. I do know there are no hacks or plug-ins. We are a pretty simple board.

I will go re-upload the files!

Am I suppose to take out the install.php after I am done?...

[Kimah72]

Even me! I just installed 3.5 from 3.0 last night. The problems are many. No one is able to post new threads, view their control panel, see who's online (that gets a funky error in itself like this:...

[Kimah72]

After all that.... now I can not post any new threads. Arghh... Things look a little screwy too. I'll come back to this tomorrow.

If you can point me in a good direction of what to do let...

Here is to the power of women and being one smart little cookie!

Ok, I finally remembered what chmode was. I rarely used it so had forgotten but I did all that and it didn't work. Ugh. I had 3.0 running fine. Why it is now that it is saying that Table isn't working?...

[Kimah72]

Now my error has changed to this...



I did what was asked in the Pinned thread in this forum but I'm not sure I fully understood the chmode part of it as I don't know what that...

[Kimah72]

After posting this I saw the "DataStore Cashing and you" thread. I still don't understand the chmoded. What is that and how do I do it?

Sorry. I've torn apart my site and now will...

I'm upgrading from 3.0 to 3.5 so you can see it's been a long time since I've upgraded. I'm having the following error. Could someone help me track down where I've gone wrong? Either in my config file...

[Kimah72]

It was a total user error! Sorry! We found that she was logging into our old static IP which our Host still had up but we don't use because we changed servers. DOH! At one point she was going to the...

[Kimah72]

I was having this problem the other day and found it was a cookie issue. There was a thread I found in these forums that helped me. Maybe it could help her. But I'd just have her delete her cookies from...

[Kimah72]

I don't think so. She was trying to make a forum active and even after she hit submit and it said changes made, they weren't and that wouldn't show up in the Mod CP, right? All I see is that Announcements...

[Kimah72]

Ok, I just did that and it worked for me. :confused I have no clue why it won't for her. I'll have her log back in and see if that has helped or if she is still having the same problem. The log shows...
