Locked out of admincp
 

I have been working on the vPortal install since Friday, with no support responses to assist in fixing or uninstalling from them. So, I have done the un-install per their threads, AND requested of 3 mods/developers there via PM to assist, with no response, but am completely locked out of my admincp for vBulletin at this point. I probably need to completely re-install the vb, but hoping you guys can help out so I don't. It seems it's turned into a vb issue now because of the portal stuff.

When I try to login, I get the following:

Warning: main(DIR/includes/functions_login.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/csea/public_html/forums/login.php on line 38

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'DIR/includes/functions_login.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/csea/public_html/forums/login.php on line 38

The portal install isn't supposed to mess with the vb files, from what I understood, but it looks like I have to edit something in the bulletin files now.

My path to the forums is public_html/forums - now I have always 'assumed' the public_html was my 'root', even though it's imbedded in the directory csea\public_html. So double checking with you guys.

Please, anyone who can help, I so appreciate it. We've been down for almost 3 days now, and I give up on the portal forums for any help.

If you respond, please be very very specific in the steps I need to take.

thx..

Try blocking plugins via your config file and see if that helps, then you can login and delete all the plugins for the hack

Wow, fast!! How do I block them? Comment them out?

theres a line that you have to add to your config file right at the top just below the <?php

I think it is or at least I've seen that line somewhere before

Well, this is what I have now:

I try to login, and the same message happens. Any other thoughts?

I don't know then. Sorry.

I think it is somewhere here in my login.php file, could you look over these 2 lines, I think this 'might' be where it is off:

or, could it be in the /functions_login.php maybe?

thx!

You have lost your definition of the constant 'DIR'.

This is defined in init.php, which is called by global.php - try uploading your original init.php and global.php files.

Sorry, I typed all this, forgot the error has now changed when I try to get to the forums: it is now:

Warning: Unknown(./../global.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /global.php(349) : eval()'d code on line 1

Fatal error: (null)(): Failed opening required './../global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/csea/public_html/forums/global.php(349) : eval()'d code on line 1

Now read the below because it is this new message my comments refer to.

I first tried doing a full restore from the backup I made a few days ago, same error. Now I've tried taking the original 2 files again you mentioned, and uploading those, same error. I'm wondering 2 things; could my license number have been corrupted or taken out during all I've done, and if so, how do I input it again?

Secondly, should I change anything in this line of the config.php file?

// ******** FULL PATH TO FORUMS DIRECTORY ******
// On a few systems it may be necessary to input the full path to your forums directory
// for vBulletin to function normally. You can ignore this setting unless vBulletin
// tells you to fill this in. Do not include a trailing slash!
// Example Unix:
// $config['Misc']['forumpath'] = '/home/users/public_html/forums';

Thanks for anything at all you can think of. Doing the full restore I 'thought' should've finally resolved all this.

Can someone figure out this issue?? I really am starting to think I need to plug the license number back in somewhere, without having to do a re-install. I just don't know what file it would go in, and if I'd enter it in plain text or not.Perhaps it is not a license issue, but, I'll take ANY and ALL suggestions to get our site back up.

thx!!!

Maybe try to upload all files to your server again.
