[TYPO3-UG Australia] corrupted database with Extension Key: flash_pageheader

[David Toshack]

Hi Cate,

If that doesn't work, it is quite possible that your database is fine,
and that its a bug in your newly installed extension that's causing the
blank backend page. I've had this happen to me a fair few times with
buggy extensions that clash with others.

Hopefully you haven't done something drastic like starting from scratch
with a new database yet, because it might be as simple as removing the
flash_pageheader name from the comma separated list:
  TYPO3_CONF_VARS['EXT']['extList']

variable in the:
  localconf.php file.

then remove the temporary files in the same directory (typo3conf), that
start with temp_CACHED_* as the localconf.php file is cached there.

This is a forceful way of removing the extension. At least then you
should have a working system, and know if it was the flash_pageheader
extension causing the problem.

Anyway, this is what I do when a newly installed extensions messes
everything up.


Cheers,
David
