OSC Max not working

**seanloughry** · 03-06-2010, 08:03 AM

I need some expert help.

Please view MUSICBOX.US - Grande Place Music Boxes and Christmas at Kitchen Kettle Village, Intercourse, PA

and let me know what I need to fix to correct the error messages. This just started this morning and I am not sure why.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Sean

What version of PHP are your running?

It looks like you are running sub 4+ which is not ideal ...

osCMax requires:

PHP 4.x (register globals off)
Mysql 3.53x and up
Apache 1.3x or 2.x.

this problem just happened this morning. I dont believe any changes were made to the servers.

Tried to get to your admin panel which also does not work!

Something most be wrong at the server end - this is not a problem with osCMax code ... either you have been hacked and someone has deleted a lot of your files or your server configuation has been changed.

this problem just happened this morning.

If this happened "all by itself" - then it maybe that you have been hacked. I would double check your server first though - this looks more like a server problem to me since both Admin and Catalog are showing errors and most hack attempts do not crash the site since there is no benefit to the hacker ...

Sean,

The problem is the query is looking for a field in the products table called product_type, which is not present in your products table.

Note that this is not a standard osCMax field or query, so it looks like someone added a mod and failed to add the field to the table.

Your solution is to either remove the product_type from the query or add a field to your products table called product_type.
