Error 500

[adamjedgar]

Hi guys,

I am experiencing a problem with whmcs and i am not sure if its just coincidental or not.

 

I have whmcs installed in public_html/whmcs.

I also used installatron to install wordpress in public_html/wordpress

 

without thinking i have moved the index.php and .htaccess for wordpress into the public_html directory outside of wordpress.

 

I havent used whmcs for about a week and when i try to log into it this morning, i get an error 500 when trying to access whmcs admin area. The login screen appears but i cannot go any further.

 

Has the wordpress installation process and moving the wordpress index.php and .htaccess into the public_html directory stuffed my whmcs installation?

 

I dont know whether to try to problem solve this or just reinstall whmcs?

 

I also note, that if i just enter http://<mydomain>/whmcs into the browser it takes me to the whmcs portal...it says i am currently logged in as admin, but when i click "return to admin area" i get an error 500. Is this also related to my problem? How do i get around this?

Hi Adamjedgar,

 

A 500 error is a server error, rather than a WHMCS Error, I'd recommend adding the following line to your configuration.php file to see if this shows any specific errors

 

$display_errors = true;

Outside of that checking your server logs for errors should point you in the right direction.
