Re-occuring file appearing in website folder....
« on: August 24, 2021, 02:31:44 PM »
Hi,

I have just received a notice of attention from Godaddy to a certain file on my site, which when deleted reappears, I have deleted the folder which it lives in, but still the file reappears along with its parent folder - https://dw7240.com/Base-Canada/forecast/error_log.  This file grows out of control and I don't know where it originates from, I just need to permanently get rid of it.  I tried Filezilla, that works, the  the file reappears, have gone through File Manager in the CPanel on Godaddy, same results, I'mat a loss with this one.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.  Nick.

It's an error log, take a look of its content and it will guide to a script that's generating the errors

Hi,

Thanks for the reply, that seemed too obvious  :oops: but I've deleted said file, and now its keeping away it seems, it was linked to Meteobridge, which I did use for forecasts, don't use the bridge itself, I wasn't sure if that file could be virus loaded, seems it was safe.

Thanks for the reply, I guess I should of waited a while to see it it returned after deleting the "forecast.php" which was generating the error.

Thanks again.

Nick.

As an aside ....

Your pages are very 'sick'.

There are multiple <head> statements, and on the index page I lost count of how many times you were trying to load jquery (different versions and different sites).

Another problem you have is now that your site is https: you have many requests to http: sources (including your own site) - most of these are being blocked.

You need to do some serious housekeeping  :shock:
