 * Hi guys would you please help me, am using WordPress 3.0.3 & the constructor 
   theme, am getting a weird error whenever I try to change my background image 
   from the images tab inside the constructor theme Customize options list, the 
   error is as follows.
 * > Server error.
   >  The website encountered an error while retrieving [http://www.via-auc.net/wp-admin/themes.php?page=functions.php](http://www.via-auc.net/wp-admin/themes.php?page=functions.php).
   > It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.
 * my website is [http://www.via-auc.net](http://www.via-auc.net) it’s under maintenance
   so am not sure if ppl can see the code or not.
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
 * We cannot see anything on the site when you have wp-maintenance enabled.
 * Does the problem still occur if you disable wp-maintenance mode?
 * Cheers!

 * I’ve been using this particular option for the last month under the maintenance
   mode & was working fine … now I removed it for you to see the code & it’s still
   not working.
 * Gives the same error on this page only

 * Have you added a new plugin recently?
 * First place I would start would be to disable all plugins to see if the error
   goes away, then re-enable one by one until the problem appears again.

 * Yes I added some plugins yesterday … but now I deactivated all of them & I still
   get the same error :-S
 * I think that a plugin has ruined my theme files, what would happen if I removed
   it then installed the same theme from a fresh copy?

 * Have you made changes to the theme function file?
 * Do you have the theme available locally where you could take a look at the theme
   files?

 * Not at all I don’t touch these things, I do have a copy & there are no changes…
   but now I tried to update the Constructor theme as I was offered in my dashboard,
   it failed & removed my previous theme files :-S
 * I think my back is to the wall now, I’ll have to start all over again 🙁 !!

 * If you have the theme locally, and haven’t made changes to the theme, I recommend
   uploading a fresh copy of the latest version to see if it helps.

 * That’s what am trying to do right now, but for some reason there are files remaining
   in the constructor theme directory on my server access is denied & can’t even
   rename this particular folder, the fresh copy refuses to be uploaded cause the
   directory name is taken …!!

 * Not sure who your host is, but you may want to contact them if you’re having 
   server access issues. This in itself can be causing problems with your install.

 * Just did, every directory was ok except for that one … they managed to remove
   it & now installing a new fresh copy
 * Thanks a lot I know I’ve been a headache, but I freaked out cause I have to launch
   the website by tomorrow night 🙁
