Hello All

 

I'm looking for a urgent solution with this issue " The required functions.php file could not be found."

 

WHMCS suddenly stop working in the client area and the error with "The required functions.php file could not be found."

 

But I can able to get logged in via admin area but an alert show me

 

" Alert !

 

This "Lara Theme Settings" module is not active.

The module is used to save user settings, and must be activated for the theme to work.

Please activate the module and make sure to permit access to all admin groups in Addon Modules Configuration."

 

Error log show : client denied by server configuration

It sounds like you are installing the admin theme Lara? You need to install the Lara Theme Settings module along side the theme!

 

To install WHMCS AdminLTE Theme (Lara) :=======================================

1 - Extract the downloaded Theme zip file locally on your computer.

2 - Assuming your admin folder is called admin, upload the folder named 'lara' to 'admin/templates/'

3 - Upload the folder named 'lara_addon' to 'modules/addons/'

4 - Login to your WHMCS admin area, click on "My Account".

5 - Select "Lara" from the templates menu and then click save changes.

6 - Go to 'addon modules' page and activate the "Lara Theme Settings" addon.

7 - After activating the module, make sure to permit access to all admin groups

by clicking "Configure" and checking all the boxes next to "Access Control".

8 - Enjoy !

 

*IMPORTANT* To Upgrade from an earlier version :

================================================

 

 

* IMPORTANT : Switch back to the default "Blend" theme.

* Upgrade your WHMCS to the latest v7.1 (Lara v7.1 will not work with other versions).

* Assuming your admin folder is called admin, upload the folder named 'lara' to 'admin/templates/'

* Upload the folder named 'lara_addon' to 'modules/addons/'.

* IMPORTANT : Clear WHMCS template cache by going to "System Cleanup", then clicking on "Empty Template Cache".

* Switch back to "Lara", then go to the "Lara Theme Settings" addon module page on your WHMCS to complete the upgrade process.

The "Lara Theme Settings" addon module page should be located at :

https://your_domain/your_whmcs_folder_/admin/addonmodules.php?module=lara_addon

 

* You may also need to clear the cache memory of your browser, which is done by doing a force refresh as follows :

 

Windows: ctrl + F5

Mac/Apple: Apple + R or Command + R

Linux: F5

 

* If the theme doesn't see the module as active, try to disable and then enable the "Lara Theme Settings" addon after upgrades.

 

 

 

Custom Widgets :

========================

For Google Analytics and Staff Chat Widgets, You need to enable the widget(s) and assign proper permissions for your admin group, by visiting :

 

https://your_domain/your_whmcs_folder_/admin/addonmodules.php?module=lara_addon

 

* Click on "Permissions".

* Select your admin group, and click to enable "Google Analytics" or "Staff Chat".

* Now visit WHMCS "home page" and follow the widget instructions to activate the widget.

 

After you are done, you may give restricted access to other admins, by repeating the above steps for each admin group.

Hello

 

Thanks for the above input will try them and get back to you.

 

My concern here is I have not done any upgrade or new theme or add-on install in admin. Before it works perfectly but suddenly it stop and show me the above error.

 

Is there any auto update feature may cause this ?

If you've recently switched to the Lara theme, you need to make sure that it's configured, as mentioned earlier. The instructions on that theme are pretty clear. Follow them

Hello Thanks the issue is been solved

Posting the actual solution may help someone else having the same issue. Nothing more frustrating than finding a thread with exactly what you have a problem with, and reading "it's fixed!" and no more.

@bear - 100% agree. It feels discourteous - though it's likely they don't know much about public community etiquette. :/

Same issue here.
