The website for our small business is down. There is an error message which says:
"Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/squirrel/squirrelstuff.com/html/index.php on line 296"
What should be done to get the site back up and running? As you know, it is Thanksgiving weekend, and we are losing a lot of sales as a result of this issue.

Anne,
You will have to post the contents of the index.php file so we can see the code.

Anne,
You will need to log into your hosting account and download the file. Then, open it with a text editor and copy the files to this thread or attach the file to the thread so we can see it. However, judging by the database error in your admin side, you have more problems then just the index page.

You are probably going to need someone to FTP into your site for you and fix the issue with the corrupted code. Its the actual content of the file that is needed to be able to determine the issue, not so much the source code of the page once a browser has loaded it.
That said, as FIMBLE stated, that source code above is not the source code from the standard admin login page of any osCommerce based webcart system. It looks more like the source code of an adapted admin login page.
My guess is its an addon of some sort that came out back in the day when people were trying to address the admin login authenticaton bypass exploit that hit the net sometime at the end of last year?

Hi Anne,
It looks like your code is messed up. Perhaps a missing } in index.php (add just before line 296 for testing)
also, when viewing your page http://........com/specials.php
This notice was received: FATAL ERROR: register_globals is disabled in php.ini, please enable it!
If you really need it, try turning it back on or flag it on.
Also go to your admin >> Configuration, and reset your SEO URLs Cache
It looks like your database may be messed up some too...
Were you hacked?

They are using an older version of oscommerce from when we had to secure admin ourselves. That code is from the add on from anchor555 There wan't a hack but probably a PHP upgrade on the hosted computer. annetaussig will probably need to update to the present oscommerce version.

A site review has concluded that the site is MS2 and was running until the hosting provider updated to PHP 5.3 and MySQL 5.2. The prognosis is not good as the code is not compatible with the server upgrades.

You will need to download the current version and follow the update instructions found in the upgrade_guide.pdf
There is not update guide from MS2 to 2.3.1

Technically there is from 2.2 to 2.3.1.
http://www.oscommerc...2/Upgrade+Guide
But it would take several hours plus a moderate level of understanding of PHP and MYSQL needed to be able to make the changes.
The other issue is whether or not there are 2.3.1 versions of the addons being used.

IMO, it is easier to create a new site with v2.3.1 than to try to update from a v2.2 site. Then as you said, there is no update path for all of the added contributions.

Doing an upgrade following the upgrade docs does not give you a complete 2.31 shop, you get a "mixed" version... ie. you can still use add-ons made for 2.2 without too much hazzle while you can not use a 2.31 addon without having to modify its code to work with your "bastardized" osc version.
