Just brain storming......maybe a few days before the problem started, I zapped the .threads files and some other v5.x junk I had lying around for half a decade after I upgraded to version six five of the board. I quickly realized the forum_*.threads files were needed so I 'rebuilt' everything and was good to go. This is the only change on my end that could have possibly caused this problem. I'm also running PHP 4,3,9(safe mode) which could probably use a version upgrade.... but I've ran .classic on much older versions/boxes with no problems (remember Netscape Fasttrack server? remember irix6.4?
)
