What sort of access do you have to the site? got telnet connection to it?
Things to check for is mysql connection,
your wiki directory should have a index.php and LocalSettings.php.
there should be a tests subdirectory, there are several test php programs there that can be run to find out whats up.
did the ISP set up the wiki installation or is it something you do? I'm just guessing, but at the very least the ISP would have setup a mysql db for you.

needs to be pass worded and name linked with the forum. But its mediawiki and has weaknesses in this area.
Rather disappointing because I did some pages in there too, all crapped up now.
If it is to be revived, it might be best to see if there is a backup say 2 or 3 or even 4 years old - before spammers got to it.

Stephen I brought this up a while ago, I don't think it is a person I believe it is a trojan/virus/program that writes a script once it realises the text has been changed. It was probably put in place by someone who doesn't even have to come to the page to make sure the script is working.stephendean wrote:Well it looks like we are going to lose the Subby Manual. I have tried repairing it but it still gets hacked. I have given up on doing that as I seem to be the only one that cared. So I suggest the Admins (if there are any) close it down.
if all of the remaining information was transfered to the tech manual section on the board it would be unhackable.
I do believe there are updates available for the wiki progam to stop this but it is up to the person hosting the wiki to put these in place.

well it seems that the Tech Manual is going the way of the dinosaurs. A few times I have tried to fix it. Not having it password protected, and the software not being updated is were the problem is. I have decided not to try and fix it any more, pointless if the admins of the site don't want to protect this valuable resource why should I spend my time trying to. The info is still there if someone has the patients to extract it and turn it in forum posts.
But it seems the owners of the site are not worried.
