jsr Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I am having this issue after I upgraded to V5.3.4. The client area seems to work perfectly fine. They are able to login, logout, order etc. However, when I login to Admin Area, after the initial login screen, I get a blank screen. After updating the configuration file to display errors, the error message I see is "Language file 'english' Missing". This is all I get. I read some documentation for language file set up and learned that the client and Admin areas have different folders for themselves. (That's a relief!). Anyway. I can see the english.php file present in my admin folder. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Note: Not sure if this matters, but I have renamed my admin folder. The folder name contains a tilde sign. Also, since I was upgrading, you can expect that all necessary set up for the config file were properly updated and everything was working like butter before the upgrade. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's where the problem lies... http://docs.whmcs.com/Further_Security_Steps NB. The Custom admin folder name can contain only alphanumeric characters (0-9, a-z).The variable in the configuration.php file should not contain a leading slash (/) so renaming the admin folder and making the change in the config file should resolve the problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This did resolve the problem for me. Thanks Brian. I wonder if this is a recent change, because it has always been working for me, since I was on V4. I also have upgraded to several subsequent versions without any problem. Anyway, thanks for pointing me to the right direction. I was having this hunch that if the folder name was a problem, but was not sure. Thanks a lot! Much appreciated! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
