[SOLVED] Site always displaying blockcart

[JayBEE]

1. Was logged into front end with item in cart.

2. Logged out.

3. Added product to cart

4. Selected checkout from cart

 

Now every time I view the home page of the site, I only see the site logo and the rest of the site is black, no matter which browser I use (Firefox, IE, Chrome). Viewing the page source reveals that it's loading blockcart.tpl

 

Emptying the smarty cache, cookies and browser cache does not help.

This is a staging/development site so I prefer to give the URL via PM/email if needed.

 

Firebug reveals the following:

browser is accessing site home page

http://.....com/inde..._=1355901218092

 

Params:

_ 1355901218092

ajax true

controller cart

token 2cc3135043404ec69dfd7d542610523b

 

Response:

{ "products": [ ], "discounts": [ ], "shippingCost": "$0.00", "shippingCostFloat": "0", "wrappingCost": "$0.00", "nbTotalProducts": "0", "total": "$0.00", "productTotal": "$0.00", "hasError" : false }

 

Any tips on how to debug this would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks!

turn error report on in "config/config.inc.php"

 

@ini_set('display_errors', 'on');

 

and check what gives you the error, if its a module try to disable it and re check

Problem resolved. It turns out I was also updating the Customer groups at that time and somehow a bunch of modules for the Guest and Visitor groups were disabled. After re-enabling them, I am now able to view the site in it's entirety.
