Hi all,
MODX Revolution 2.5.7-pl
I can not browse my site (currently in development) unless I am logged into the Manager in the same browser session.
Any attempt to visit the site in a browser without a Manager tab logged in results in a long wait followed by:
This page isn’t working
yyy.zzz.net didn’t send any data.
ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE
This happens from all locations and all browsers that I have tried.
My host (shared platform) looked at this and replied:
I think there is a problem with the script as it seems to be looping trying to open files in the '/home/yyy/zzz/htdocs/abc/core/cache/resource/web/' directory, eventually timing out.
There may be some sense in this as I guess non-logged-in users will be served from the cache, logged-in users would not. My understanding of the cache is limited.
I have cleared the MODX cache, flushed permissions to no effect.
I am somewhat stuck as to where to go from here. No new entries appear in the MODX Error Log after these page-load fails.
I have also started with a brand new installation of MODX on a separate server, restored the database from the original site and still witness the same behaviour.
In all cases everything is fine with a manager-logged-in browser session.
Because I had had my own browser logged into a manager session for some months before noticing this issue, the prospect of locating a working backup and losing subsequent changes is not particularly appealing as it stands!
Any contributions, thoughts or questions most welcome and apologies if I have missed any vital info.
