Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted February 24, 20232 yr Hello all in dire need of some assistance. Move my invision board to a new host. The forum seems to be working fine. I am able to log in etc. When I go to log into the admin I get the error below in the console. Any ideas how to fix this? I had posted this here but they suggested I should post here.
February 24, 20232 yr Author Have this in the log (I replace specific name with mysite) [24-Feb-2023 13:22:55 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class "IPS\Http\Url\Friendly" not found in /home/mysite/public_html/mysite/forums/system/Http/Url.php:279 Stack trace: #0 /home/nolfg152/public_html/mysite/forums/system/Request/Request.php(276): IPS\Http\_Url::createFromString() #1 /home/nolfg152/public_html/mysite/forums/system/Log/Log.php(106): IPS\_Request->url() #2 /home/nolfg152/public_html/mysite/forums/init.php(1034): IPS\_Log::log() #3 [internal function]: IPS\IPS::exceptionHandler() #4 {main} thrown in /home/nolfg152/public_html/mysite/forums/system/Http/Url.php on line 279
February 25, 20232 yr Author Really need some guidance here. Is there a way to reset the admin part? I have verified that all the identical files from the old host are on the new one using the same file path etc.
February 25, 20232 yr Author I ran the compatibility checker while wait for an answer from support. Here's the results:

Verify the file exists and has the proper permissions, and if it doesn't, copy it from the old server. You might have more missing though, copying over again all the files would be a good idea. Or, if you are on version 4.7.7, download a new zip file with all the suite files from your client area and upload the files directly from it. Edited February 25, 20232 yr by teraßyte

Would copying the files over from 4.77 download still work?
February 25, 20232 yr Solution You would want to upload ALL 4.7.7 files. Don’t mix/match. After you upload the 4.7.7 files, go to yourdomain.com/admin/upgrade to manually upgrade to the latest version. 🙂 Edited February 25, 20232 yr by Randy Calvert

I used to have a .htaccess file for my admin directory. I had to remove it on the new host. How do I go about making a new one in IPB 4.7?

Before I moved the forum when one went to the admin console you were presented with this. You had to know the username password for this which was stored in a .htaccess file in the admin folder. Afterwards you could log into the admin console.

February 27, 20232 yr It is worth noting, this is an old way of doing things. You are actually better to use the built in 2 factor authentication to secure your admin area. You can read more about this here
