XTreme54 Posted November 3, 2022 Posted November 3, 2022 Hi.....I'm trying to log in to the Admin area and getting a 500 server error. This has only happened since the latest update.
Jim M Posted November 3, 2022 Posted November 3, 2022 A 500 Internal Server Error is like the check engine light on your car. It says something is wrong but not exactly what or where. You will need to go to your server's error log to find the error related to what is happening here. Likely, this is related to an incompatible third party application/plugin. If so, you can try recovery mode here:   However, if it is an issue with the core software, we will require the error log entry to proceed. Â

Recovery mode gets enabled through a constant in your constants.php file 😉 .

Please read the instructions below: https://invisioncommunity.com/4guides/client-services/getting-support-r292/#recoverymode  Can you clarify whether I have to create the constants.php file? And where in the installation does it need to go? public_html?

Many thanks Jim....I'm back in and third party addons are disabled. But I can still see a hook showing up from one of them......how do I get rid of that? Also, I've just gone to try and install an updated theme (new one) and I don't see any option to install a new theme?

I'm afraid, we cannot answer that. Are you attempting to install via the Marketplace? If so, please ensure it is compatible.

No....I'm not talking about the theme itself Jim......I'm referring to the option to install a new theme within the template section of the Admin area.

You would click the "Create New" button there. If you are uploading a theme, you would click the "Manual Upload" link in the popup modal that will appear.

I'm not getting that.
