Ive been running 4.7 for months now without incident until last night. I browse to the page and it's blank. We haven't made any changes to the website for about a week now so this outage is totally unexpected. Other scripts on my host seem to be working fine as well so I'm starring at my blank drupal page scratching my head.

I don't have a recent backup. I just deleted the backups I had in the home dir and forgot to make new ones the night I did it. DOH!

I ran a repair on the database everything is cool from there and the files seem to be intact.. I dunno

PHP by default has an 8M memory limit, if it goes over that the site will not show any errors, but there will be one in Apache's (one assumes) erorr log.

Check /etc/php/apache.ini or whatever it is on your system and restart.

make a backup now. do a restore to a local test site. this narrows down the area of problems. I suspect like the first post, it's a php memory problem. You can also clear the cache.

Also, review the best practices on suggested backup strategy of having multiple dated backups instead of just one.
