 * The wp-config-db.php file is generated by StageShow whenever the settings are
   changed, and includes a number of site options, that are then used by the ticket
   validator code.
    Clearly in your case this has generated a file that will not
   load, so I’ll need to see the file itself (or at least part of it) to find out
   what is happening. Do not post it here, as it contains security information for
   your site, but if you could email it to me, removing the values for the DB_*****
   defines before you do, then I’ll take a look.
