Re: Sources > Subs-Auth.php file deleted itself

I had the same issue, transferred with GoDaddy file manager and they would auto delete. I found if I could catch them before they deleted and changed the permissions to executable they worked okay You have to be fast and get them before they are delete...

Contact them, ask them why their security system keeps dealing your files.

Well, that's a new one. A webhost that deals your own personal files.

Oi! I resemble that remark!

Re: Sources > Subs-Auth.php file deleted itself

Me, neither.



Fact is, though, it does and I can't figure any pattern with the files that croak.



Life... don't talk to me about life...

I can't imagine why it would, though, that's the weird thing. I know what it's doing with the auto thing, at least what it's supposed to be doing as per what FTP specification says. But I don't get why it would mess up text files.

It shouldn't, I concur. But, for whatever reason, it does, with some. I've known it happen to a number of people, including me.



I have no idea as to why, though.



Someone did explain it, here, a while back. Pity I didn't bookmark it.

Re: Sources > Subs-Auth.php file deleted itself

Hmmmmmm. I'm confused by the first one, the others... even more surprising.



Something is weird.



@K@: I do not understand why auto would freak text files. Images, sure, but not text files. And not in a 'file not even being uploaded' way.

Change Filezilla's "Transfer type", under the "Transfers" menu, to "binary". The default "auto" setting is known to break some files.

Re: Sources > Subs-Auth.php file deleted itself

Many files? Which files specifically?



Re: Sources > Subs-Auth.php file deleted itself

Re: Sources > Subs-Auth.php file deleted itself

(This is not just GoDaddy. I am hearing rumours of HostGator doing something similar)



Re: Sources > Subs-Auth.php file deleted itself

Re: Sources > Subs-Auth.php file deleted itself

Is your new hosting company GoDaddy?



Re: Sources > Subs-Auth.php file deleted itself

Re: Sources > Subs-Auth.php file deleted itself

This would imply the new hosting company has overly strict security procedures that delete 'suspicious looking files'.



Of course, none of these companies ever tell *us* what is suspicious looking about anything in SMF so it's not like we can ever fix i...
