Cache crash

I was in ads and pressed one of the buttons a couple of times then Dashboard clear all cache and managed in bringing site down Is anyone familiar with this problem and is their an easy way out?

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting ')' in /home/******/public_html/cache/sys_options_ae6e6c1cae4bc82012a28bd53b09d1af.php on line 269

did you delete the .htaccess file from cache? restoring that may fix it.

Damaged sys_options cache file.

Turn off caching and then clear it again.

No its taken everything I can't even get into c/panel and the problem is its hosted with Dolphin_Jay and I've not heard from him for 3 days so god knows how long its going to be down.

All I'm getting now is An unable to connect page but I have got ftp by the looks.

you can clear the cache via ftp, just be sure to leave htaccess intact.

 Could you tell me how or at least which files to go to please - I have public cache and cache?

Um. that really does not sound good. A problem within dolphin CANNOT affect cpanel. So if the problem truly has migrated to cpanel and it's not just as simple as panicking and typing wrong password so many times it locked you out, then i suspect something you don't want to hear.

But hopefully your cpanel problem is nothing more than a security lockout due to a panic attack. Or maybe your confusing the word cpanel with dolphin admin panel which are two different things, but i have seen the mistake before, so i had to mention it.

 Both.

I have two sites that are obviously on the same server and when the first went it brought other down to. I have deleted all the files in the two cache files on one site accept htacess and it has'nt done anything looks as if i should have left well alone!

The only thing I can think of is the c/panel license has run out on one!

Thanks guys has now been sorted it seems the server must have cycled through its daily backups and cleared as I got that original error message come up. I cleared both 'caches in ftp as you told me and it works - thanks again for your help.
