Strange happenings on 6/6/06.  Yesterday and for the past 2 years or more the script has been working just fine.  Now it was sending us off to the US Census beureau (calling just cgi-bin, a google search would run and this was the first result.)  Now, after replacing the 3 main files, I can get to the add_edit page but save and continue brings up "The page cannot be displayed".  The same is true for any other Admin fnction.  Can anyone suggest some possible causes, I'll even take probable at this point.
Thanks
This is a BSD shared server and debug.pl says everything is just fine.

** "The page cannot be displayed". The same is true for any other Admin function. Can anyone suggest some possible causes **

Did you check the server error logs to see if an error message was recorded?

*Thoroughly* inspect the URL of the page that can not be displayed to see if anything's amiss. Maybe it is pointing to a non-existent page for some reason?

** Now it was sending us off to the US Census bureau (calling just cgi-bin, a google search would run and this was the first result.) **

 Sounds like your web site might have been hacked. (Getting lots of people to run specific searches can boost a web site's ranking.)

I suggest you contact the host's support and ask them to look into that possibility.

JMO

BTW. What version of CalendarScript are you running?

The error log is full of "junk", looks like the frontpage extensions have been trashed.  Very few calendar entries, but this one seems to show up often "[Tue Jun 06 15:29:49 2006] [error] [client **.22.69.85] Premature end of script headers: calendar_admin.pl, referer: http://www.cpes.net/cgi-bin/calendar.pl"

Current version is 3.2.1.
Thanks for the assistance.

A quick addendum, I called the hosting company yesterday, they were the ones to discover it was going to a search but the search was occuring client side since the url was incomplete.  Now that I re-loaded all of the files the url seems to be more "intact" but the can't display message keeps appearing.  I did note that most of the activity on the calendar is not logged in either log for some reason.

Okay, the ISP claims they have a problem with the server, no scripts (JS excluded) can be run on it for the next week.  I have another site I can use to host the calender but how do I get it to register all of the existing events?

It seems to recognize all of the users but none of the events or customization from the original site seem to be showing up.  Any help?

I don't know why that would be as long as the schedule.txt and events.txt files are there and not corrupted. Sorry.
