There was an offending folder in themes with the name MAC_OSX which was from me compressing the new Adventure theme on my mac and no matter what program I tried, sold explorer etc. would not delete this folder....this is what was causing the apache xml blinking error. I manually exported 2 tracks to gpx files that were after the last full backup then did a full restore and got it working again.
