Eqdkp Issues

[Amos]

I had a problem with eqdkp yesterday. Everything was working fine. Then yesterday, evrytime I tried to access the main eqdkp page, I got the not found error message.

I tried accessing the site from the shell and I got this:

[root@dontsnooze eqdkp]# lynx http://the.superlink.org/phpBB2/eqdkp/

lynx: Can't access startfile http://the.superlink.org/phpBB2/eqdkp/


I'm Not sure what actually caused the problem, but I did find the solution.

Somehow the "start page" changed to "login.php?logout=true"
It's possible my "mousewheel" made the change accidentally and I didnt notice...maybe while i was in the configuration page of eqdkp.

I was able to access the pages directly tho (i.e http://the.superlink.org/phpBB2/eqdkp/listevents.php, http://the.superlink.org/phpBB2/eqdkp/viewmembers.php etc..)
since I could not login as admin (or any other user for that matter), I had to go to phpMyadmin and manually change the value in the eqdkp database....table was "eqdkp_config" and Ihad to go to the second page to find the start page cell. I replaced that with "listraids.php" and everything came back.
