    Last week I was pulling my hair out coz I had 3 blogs that were infected with the: eval(base64_decode virus that was kicking around on the 2.9.1 version of WP.

    WOW what a wake up call! I went from earning a bit of cash one day to nada the next. This just opened my eyes to how exposed we are on the internet when trying to earn a living.

    Anyway, my problem now is I have cleaned out 2 of the blogs and re-uploaded with success (taking all the advice from posts in this forum by cleaning and changing the PW’s). But the 3rd site I have is being a bit of a bugger and maybe to do with the pages and how I have set them up.

    This is the error message I’m getting: /public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 865

    Everything is fine with the blog until it comes to reinstalling my database back up.

    I am reinstalling the blog clean from the version that I was using before the virus attack to then update it after.

    The code on line 865 in pluggable.php reads this header("Location: $location");

    The front end is showing, it is just the back end with this error.

    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks in advance
    Matt

    Hi Esmi,

    Thanks for the advice. Just for reference incase someone else has the same problem, I was using the 5 min install tactic and you dont have to work with the sample-config.php but the link Esmi sent is the one for you if your doing manual instalation.

    I however just needed to upgrade the database after uploading my old database to myphp. Problem solved.

    Everything seems to be working fine now front end but when I view source I now have this snipit of code at the top of source:

    <head>
    <style type="text/css">
    @import url('style.ie6.css');
    @import url('style.ie7.css');
    @import url('style.css');
    </style>
    </head>
    
    <head>
    <style type="text/css">

    @import url('style.ie7.css');
    @import url('style.css');
    </style>
    </head>

    I have just uploaded an updated theme and it has gone.

    When I did it though I do still get a Header error then I refresh and all is fine. is this just a lag in server speaking with code?

    This happens if there is blank line in the starting of the PHP file(s).
