XF 1.5 Warning: Uncaught exception 'ErrorException' with message 'require...

[Chris Radford]

Hi,

We've consistently run into security vunerabilites & hacks in recent months, so today we have looked to remove all addons and start fresh with the latest installs. However, in the process of removing the addons, I appear to have run into the following issue when opening http://www.onefootballforum.co.uk ... however when I include /index.php it would appear that the website loads.

Warning: Uncaught exception 'ErrorException' with message 'require(/home/onefootb/public_html/library/Lgpl/utf8.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory' in /home/onefootb/public_html/library/XenForo/Application.php:242 Stack trace: #0 /home/onefootb/public_html/library/XenForo/Application.php(242): XenForo_Application->handlePhpError(2, 'require(/home/o...', '/home/onefootb/...', 242, Array) #1 /home/onefootb/public_html/library/XenForo/Application.php(242): XenForo_Application::beginApplication() #2 /home/onefootb/public_html/library/XenForo/Application.php(291): XenForo_Application->beginApplication('/home/onefootb/...', '/home/onefootb/...', true) #3 /home/onefootb/public_html/index.php(9): XenForo_Application::initialize('/home/onefootb/...', '/home/onefootb/...') #4 {main} thrown in /home/onefootb/public_html/library/XenForo/Application.php on line 242

Fatal error: XenForo_Application::beginApplication(): Failed opening required '/home/onefootb/public_html/library/Lgpl/utf8.php' (include_path='/home/onefootb/public_html/library:.:.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/onefootb/public_html/library/XenForo/Application.php on line 242

Can somebody please attempt to shed some light on this for me? Thank you in advance!

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^onefootballforum\.co.uk$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://onefootballforum.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]

That it's incorrect,

Try again default .htaccess here.

<IfModule mod_security.c>
    SecFilterEngine Off
    SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>

ErrorDocument 401 default
ErrorDocument 403 default
ErrorDocument 404 default
ErrorDocument 405 default
ErrorDocument 406 default
ErrorDocument 500 default
ErrorDocument 501 default
ErrorDocument 503 default

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^(data/|js/|styles/|install/|favicon\.ico|crossdomain\.xml|robots\.txt) - [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [NC,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L]
</IfModule>

Thanks for the response however...

Our .htaccess has not been changed for a significant amount of time.
Either way, I've just made the changes you suggested and the issue still remains, it's not fixed.

Do you check your ftp in error_log?

I have ask you question,
What your server run on apache or nginx?

 

[SametxChan]

Apache is works fine on .htaccess
Nginx is nothing, it's from webserver, not needed for .htaccess

 

[SametxChan]

You don't know your server?

You can check your site.com/admin.php?tools/phpinfo

It's phpinfo by your run server.

 

[Chris Radford]

I'm struggling to see the relevance to what you're suggesting? Nevertheless, the server runs apache.

The forum was working before I made adjustment to /libary/ files. This indicates the issue has arisen through my actions.

I have now re-downloaded the 1.5.9 upgrade and uploaded all /libary/ files, overwriting existing.

As of right now the admin CP loads perfectly but the forums index greets me with a white screen. Help would be appreciated.

It makes a world of difference. The .htaccess you posted earlier, as pointed out earlier, is incorrect. Below is the default htaccess that I would suggest you add to help further troubleshoot and rule that out. Keep in mind that we are just trying to help so withholding information is not productive.

#    Mod_security can interfere with uploading of content such as attachments. If you
#    cannot attach files, remove the "#" from the lines below.

Thanks for the response Dan, I do appreciate it and learning as I go here.
.htaccess in public_html is now as shown above in your reply. .htaccess in /libary/ is;

Order deny,allow
Deny from all

 

[Dan]

That htaccess needs to go in your forum root, not in the library folder.

Sorry misread at first. A blank page is usually an indication of a suppressed php error. Do you have access to your server logs?

 

[Dan]

Also, if you would like me to, Start a conversation and provide your FTP details and/or server credentials and I could take a look for you.

Thanks for the offer, forwarding you a PM now.

After reviewing server errors via the Xenforo admin panel I've managed to resolve the issue.
The issue related to the removal of Tapatalk.
Many thanks for your assistance.
