Hello,

I am new to SilverStripe and like it so far.

On a live website, I (accidentally) overwrote the site/_config.php file and the website no longer works properly.
Website is here http://www.cleanco-ltd.co.uk/

How do I rebuild/replace the _config.php file?
(This is the main site one that is located in the root directory.)

Needless to say I feel a total clown, and now require help.

Regards
Chris

I actually did make this mistake and was wondering if anyone knew the answer to this. I copied and pasted a sample _config.php and my site went from redirect loop to website error. Still not functional, but better than previously. I have tried dev/build but I'm just getting the error screen over and over again. Here is what my config file looks like now:

<?php

global $project;
$project = 'mysite';

global $databaseConfig;
$databaseConfig = array(
"type" => "MySQLDatabase",
"server" => "localhost",
"username" => "root",
"password" => "root",
"database" => "SS_mysite",
);

MySQLDatabase::set_connection_charset('utf8');

// enable nested URLs for this site (e.g. page/sub-page/)
SiteTree::enable_nested_urls();

// This line set's the current theme. More themes can be
// downloaded from http://www.silverstripe.org/themes/
SSViewer::set_theme('cunardclassic');

?>

What needs to be fixed? Thanks.

Ok, I added the set environment and now this is what I get:

Since I'm new to php and css, unfortunately I don't know what any of this means. But does this give people a better idea of what I should be doing to get the site to work normally again?
