phunter121 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I'm in desperate help , as my website is down. I pressed the regenerate .htaccess file int he back office, as I was having problem with the images, and now I cannot access my front or back office. How can I access the back office so that I can regenerate another .htaccess file. Why did it go wrong in the first place? Is this common?

Dh42 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Is a file actually being generated on the server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phunter121 Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 hi there, yes, it generated a new .htaccess file, but then i got an error on when trying to open the fo and the bo. I tried putting a blank .htaccess file (with 666 permissions) to try and get to the bo to regenerate the .htaccess file, but got internal 500 error. At the end, I got server admin to retrieve the .htaccess from a backup. I wonder how this could have been resolved , i.e. access the back office , if the .htaccess file was lost and no backup found? many thanks, patricia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
