Hi Rod

Working and (presumably) fixed!

When the admin has seized up previously during this problem, after doing some experiments, I had been deleting the entire store via FTP and then restoring the database and backup (modified archive file with only the store included) via CPanel.

However, this time all I did was a restore of the site via CPanel over the existing site! Don't know why it worked and OzPost is now working! I have had many problems continue when restoring like this before (as it only seems to replace missing files and keeps 'rogue' files) so that is why I usually delete the entire site and do a full restore to a known point. Then I try again (and sometimes again and again and again :-)

Anyway, would still appreciate any advice on why this happened.

Cheers

Anthony
