    Thanks for the link, but where does this code go? I looked at the “Zebra” example too, but don’t know (as a beginner) where to put it. Again, is there a tutorial/book that would bring me up to speed on this sort of hacking?

    Well, a little deeper reading into the codex and a link therein to a forum discussion tells me that being able to edit your theme design “live” is discouraged. All of my WP files are rw/rw/r, all directories rwx/rwx/rx. This is how it should be. The promoted way is to change things locally, then upload them to live. Okay then….

    But of course! If it’s not in the code then where else could it be but the so-called database! Sorry for the newbie muddle.

    This is what my sysadmin did:

    I added:
    
    ~    php_flag zend.ze1_compatibility_mode Off
    ~    php_value memory_limit 32M
    
    to the apache vhost config for the domain.
    
    The first line shuts off PHP4 compatibility.

    And now it seems to come up okay.

    I’m having the same problems. My sysadmin suggested looking at my logs. Here’s what a tail -F… produced:

    [Tue Jul 08 11:03:26 2008] [error] [client 97.112.79.7] ALERT – canary mismatch on efree() – heap overflow detected (attacker ‘97.112.79.7’, file ‘/usr/www/data/virtual/borealowl/htdocs/wp-includes/taxonomy.php’, line 18)

    Strange! I can run a simple test.php with phpinfo() and it spills its php info guts just fine. Any ideas? BTW this is a BSD host.

    I also thought of file permissions. What should they be, for example, for wp-config.php. Mine has a password for the mySQL database in it.
