[tw2113_Slack_] overwrote the index.php file in the root folder?
# Meatwad[m] thats probably it!
# Meatwad[m] lemme look
# [tw2113_Slack_] Meatwad[m] was that the issue?
# Meatwad[m] apparently not
# [tw2113_Slack_] what are you seeing? white screen? new install screen? something else?
# Meatwad[m] just a 404 for the index entirely
# [tw2113_Slack_] htaccess file have things in it?
# Meatwad[m] nginx
# Meatwad[m] not apache
# [tw2113_Slack_] WordPress 404 as if a page isn't found or server level 404
# Meatwad[m] and the server block is correct
lucci joined the channel
# [tw2113_Slack_] just throwing ideas your way to check on
# Meatwad[m] server level
# Meatwad[m] i appreciate any and all im lost, and kinda new at this
# [tw2113_Slack_] whats the url?
# Meatwad[m] girlsdocorn.com
# [tw2113_Slack_] if you're fine sharing that much
# [tw2113_Slack_] i'm getting a white screen with that
# Meatwad[m] yeah white screen in ff, 404 page in chrome
# [tw2113_Slack_] ah
# Meatwad[m] wait i can turn on debugging
# Meatwad[m] i found things that may help me fix this
[tantek] joined the channel
# Meatwad[m] yay, debug shows nothing instead of a white screen
# Meatwad[m] i have since ran through the other obvious checklist of wsod things like themes and plugins
# Meatwad[m] ive made a proper mess of this, its probably easier for me to start over than attempt to fix at this point
# [tw2113_Slack_] nginx is great and awesome when it's working, but i do tend to fear having to touch its configurations
# Meatwad[m] i feel the same way about apache2
lucci joined the channel
# Meatwad[m] got it
# Meatwad[m] i was recovering from being hacked, there was nasty php in the index still left
# Meatwad[m] they got in via multisite bbpress
# [tw2113_Slack_] my word that content 😛
# [tw2113_Slack_] glad you found it
# Meatwad[m] it was a bad joke taken way too far
# Meatwad[m] it will never have actual nsfw content
# Meatwad[m] ty for your help!
# [tw2113_Slack_] to be fair i once had cynicalchicken.net
# Meatwad[m] now, to make another nginx block and find a better solution to hosting the star trek forum....
# Meatwad[m] but thats outside of the scope of here, danke
# [tw2113_Slack_] welcome

[chrisaldrich] And here I thought that my chicken feed at https://boffosocko.com/kind/chicken/feed/ was cool... How could you give up cynicalchicken.net [tw2113_Slack_]?!

# [tw2113_Slack_] mostly good purpose at this point, it was a really early attempt at me doing a self hosted, tumblr, where i just posted 1 image i found funny. That said, the domain is available if you want to do a redirect to your link above 🙂
# [tw2113_Slack_] anyways, way past my bed time

# [tw2113_Slack_] i hope i got the math correct enough to determine current status for reading challenges. I've read X books out of Y target for the year. Right now, am I on track, behind schedule, or ahead of schedule?"
# Meatwad[m] i havent attempted a reading challenge like that since i was a child
# [tw2113_Slack_] 25 a year seems to be ideal for me
# Meatwad[m] i read about the equivelent of that of text. just infrequently books these days
# Meatwad[m] more often its research journals or tech stuff or news
