I have no idea how this happenend, but the root node is gone. When I try to go into Trash to restore the homepage (front page), I still get the error after I restore and send for publishing. No results.

I've tried to reset the debug settings, but it seems that whenever I try to do something, the same error occurs.

Specs:
Host: Firebright (virtual)
eZpublish 3.4.4
Apache 2.0.40
MySQL 3.23.58
PHP (Redhat-9) 4.3.4

Please help. I'm at a loss.

Thanks.

Luke

Hi Luke,

You should change IndexPage (in override/site.ini.append.php) for your new root node_id.

# Which page to show when the root index (/) is accessed
IndexPage=/content/view/full/new_node_id/

Lukasz,

Thanks the response.

I tried that before posting and again afterwards.

I when I submit that change, I get the kernel(3) error message and the change does not take effect. It still references the root node_id that seems to have disappeared.

Any other ideas?

Thanks.

Luke

So, your problem is more complicated... Look at this topics.

I tried working on the tables directly, but things seemed shaky.

I'm going to restore last night's backup. We'll lose a day of work, but we can make that up.

Next, I'm going to start running hourly backups...
