I have recently been setting up OpenCart as a replacement to a homegrown e-commerce product as I simply do not have enough time to continue working on it and need something that offers the functions like opencart does.
I had the site working nicely and was slowly transferring the products and categories across when out of no where the main site has stopped working and I cant for the life of me understand/remember what I have done that has caused it.
The site was a basic 2.0.1.1 installation and I have installed the import/export tool along with the fix for the FTP. This had been and still is working as far as I can tell.
I haven't even changed the template yet!
Whats happening is the home page only appears to show the bottom of the site. Im missing the logo, the menus and the sliders. All other pages just result in a blank page.
I have tried to show errors and see if there is anything in the log but this isn't appearing as an error. I have even gone as far as backing up the Database and creating a brand new fresh installation with no mods which loaded ok to begin with but after restoring the database to it results in the same. This obviously leads me to believe there is something wrong with the database.
Upon closer inspection I have also noted that there appears to be something wrong with the HTML output.
Inspecting the source shows this:
the head begins ok but gets to this point:
Code: Select all
<script>
(function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i[\\\\\\\
Code: Select all
</head>
<body class="common-home">
I'm 99% certain this is something to do with the database where it has a strange character or something, but i just lack the skills to find it.
I'm keen to fix this as I have already put some time in configuring this site plus its good to document for anyone else!
Let me know what you need to see and Ill happily post it.
Thanks in advance
