Need Help restoring Site disabled by Developer
I'm not a programmer but the best I can tell is that the web.config file changed but other changes may have also occurred as he had root access. I speculate as to the web.config file being the cause due to the file looks to have been changed a week before the site problem began although the web.config file changes may provide a clue as to what was done.
This is an ASP site with one SQL database.
Bottom Line - I don't know exactly what was done. My personal effort at restoring the web.config file didn't fix the problem.
Not sure what to do. One option that I'm considering is having my host do a full restore from a previous date, although I'm not sure that would fix my problem. Was and still hoping for a simpler fix. I have backups of several files but probably not all.
The option I want to avoid is having to capitulate to the unreasonable fee demand. Honestly I liked the guy and thought he did good work but now have lost trust and think that I need to look for new support.
I can provide the before and after config files and the associated error statements produced if helpful. Please PM or email if private information is needed.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and offer suggestions.
