Hey Thanks for the response
Ok heres the situation, I gave my client access to the photogallery, we are using ssp director. He uploaded about 1000 photos and maxed out the server space. At the same time ALL the information in the website disappeared. The template I created was fine, global content block fine, but all the text and flash in the content was missing. I went into the backend and saw that the text and html was still in the admin so I reapplied the pages. Everything came back except for the navigation on the inside pages. Even if I create a new template and insert the nav in still doesnt work. I contacted my hosting midphase and this is what they told me.
Your domain is hosted in a server in which suphp has been enabled. This is the reason for the error you receive.
The rules for php to work fine on phpsuexec enabled servers are
1. htaccess should not contain any php config values.. Such php values should
be specified in php.ini.
2. permissions for all the php files must be 644
3. Permissions for all web directories must be 755
4. Ownership must be of the user and not nobody or any other user.
Please correct your permissions accordingly to resolve the issues.
So I did all this but nav is still not there.
Does this make any sense, I must have about 30 sites running cms made simple on the same server with no problem
Here is the server details
Apache version 1.3.41 (Unix)
PHP version 5.2.6
MySQL version 5.0.51a-community
Architecture i686
Operating system Linux
Any help would be much appreciated

Hello,
your hosting provider seems afraid about security.

This condition seems uncompatible with CMSms' tmp directory set up.

If you set a directory into 777 under PHPSUEXEC, PHP might (apparently depending on the settings of PHPSUEXEC) not work in that directory.
From your hosting provider's support: "PHPSUEXEC will also refuse to serve any pages that are at security risk, for example with 777 as permissions. (will generate an Internal Server Error)"
http://help.midphase.com/support/questi ... tionid=526
Could it be possible, that your hosting provider has just implemented PHPSUEXEC on your server? Otherwise, the answer you have been given could be a half-automated response. Like, this is their default answer to any question. Seems a bit weird that this PHP script would start to suddenly affect you if it hasn't been a problem before.

I think it is a security/hosting issue : search for '777' and '755' and even '775'. There are reports of providers-configuration combinaisons.
