This is a known bug with vBulletin due to gzip, it's fixed in version 4 but not (yet) backported to version 3.
Open up global.php and below <?php on a new line add:PHP Code:ini_set('output_buffering', false);
while (ob_get_level()) {ob_end_clean();}

Same thing has happened to me today. I can't find any changed files and I uninstalled the one new mod I had installed. Forumhome just won't display.
I tried disabling every mod but it didn't help. Then I turned off the Hook system and that made forumhome come back.
I can't find anything that's changed except the one mod I installed yesterday (which was working yesterday). So, nothing's changed with that mod removed.Leave a comment:

Hello Checkypoint,
I saw a few websites with the same error in the past days due to an hack that had modified some php files. First, try scanning your vbulletin files using vBulletin diagnostic tools for changed/edited files. If that finds nothing, check all files edited recently in your machine. If you are on Linux using find with mtime will help (ex. find . -type f -mtime -2 will look for files edited in the past two days).
Otherwise, it could either be a modification you have just installed that requires some file editing, which in vB 3.5.x were more common, that is outputting some stuff.
Hope this helps!Leave a comment:

I cannot think of anything. I suppose you can put in a Support Ticket. They will want all mods disabled and a default style to use.Leave a comment:

Have you tried contacting your host and asking if they did something to your server right before you started getting this error?
Try disabling your modifications/plugins and see if you still have this problem.
Note: To temporarily disable the plugin system, edit config.php and add this line right under <?php
PHP Code:define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

I'll try that right now, Lynne. I've already contacted my hosts and asked them about it and they said they did nothing of the kind.Leave a comment:

I will try that now. Thank you for the quick responses! I will update this post in just a few minutes saying whether or not it worked/didn't work.
Edit: I'm still getting the same Content Encoding Error. Is there anything else I can try?Leave a comment:

Try adding this to your config.php file:
PHP Code:DEFINE('NOZIP', 1);

Hello, I am faced with an error that I cannot fix. Everytime I try to go to my forum (located at: http://forum.demonflyff.com/) I am faced with the following error: "Content Encoding Error. The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression. Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem."
I'm using Firefox 3.5.5 and have been having this problem for the last week. I can't even get to my forum homepage, so I can't go into the Admin CP or anything.
Please, any help would be great.
Thanks in advance,
Checkypoint
