Currently you have two webmail options Horde or Roundcube, in the near future (the exact date will vary from server to server), Horde will no longer be available and all the data currently in Horde will be moved to Roundcube. No action is required on your part, we just wanted to make you aware this is happening. This is due to [00:57] schestowitz Horde reaching "end of life" meaning that is no longer being developed or supported." ● Oct 25 [06:06] *Disconnected (Connection reset by peer).

[13:47] schestowitz good morning [13:47] schestowitz What is the nature of your query? [13:47] schestowitz No problem, hold on whilst we get one of the team to assist you. [13:47] schestowitz did you upgrade php? [13:47] schestowitz Hi [13:47] schestowitz We don't usually adjust php versions without a request to do so - what is the issue you are seeing please? [13:47] schestowitz schestowitz.com - a site hosted by you for nearly 20 years - has many CMS issues [13:47] schestowitz Schestowitz.com Software Solutions [13:47] schestowitz I checked error logs, not much clue there [13:47] schestowitz many 500 errors when accessing the 3 wordpress installs there [13:47] schestowitz I checked disk space too [13:47] schestowitz checked the DBs [13:47] schestowitz One moment while I check those logs for you and see if I can spot anything [13:47] schestowitz the blogs are in xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/public_html/Weblog [13:47] schestowitz and ~public_html/c [13:47] schestowitz and ~public_html/w [13:47] schestowitz the back end of WordPress fails [13:48] schestowitz also two php-nuke sites -- nothing shows up at all [13:48] schestowitz Can you provide a URL for where you are seeing these 500 errors please? [13:48] schestowitz try http://schestowitz.com/Weblog/xxxxxxx [13:48] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes- ( status 404 @ http://schestowitz.com/Weblog/xxxxxxx ) [13:48] schestowitz Perfect, thank you [13:48] schestowitz The errors do seem consistent with a PHP version conflict - can you confirm which version these sites are meant to be running please? [13:48] schestowitz I can see the sites are inheriting the PHP version from the server, so if this was changed due to a previous version going end of life, your sites will have inherited that version. The server is currently running PHP7.4 as default. [13:48] schestowitz I've have just changed schestowitz.com to use php5.6 - http://schestowitz.com/Weblog/wp-admin/ appears to be loading ok now, please can you confirm? [13:48] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-schestowitz.com Log In [13:48] schestowitz schestowitz.com Log In [13:48] schestowitz sure, let me check [13:48] schestowitz No problem [13:48] schestowitz aha! all 5 content management systems/sections work now [13:48] schestowitz so it was, after all, php [13:48] schestowitz i use lts (still supported) wordpress versions [13:48] schestowitz Excellent, yes all sites under schestowitz.com are now inheriting their PHP version from that main domain - we would advise looking at updating to support a newer version of PHP though as support for 5.6 is likely to be removed from the server at some point in the future now it is deprecated [13:48] schestowitz Schestowitz.com Software Solutions [13:48] schestowitz Is there anything else I can assist with? [13:48] schestowitz that's fine for now, thank you [13:48] schestowitz You're welcome - have a nice day ● Oct 25 [14:31] *GNUmoon2 has quit (connection closed) [14:32] *GNUmoon2 (~GNUmoon@6h225yswjsmje.irc) has joined #techbytes ● Oct 25 [15:16] *psydroid2 has quit (connection closed) [15:16] *psydroid2 (~psydroid@h635kpe3hju7k.irc) has joined #techbytes ● Oct 25 [17:10] *Mio14 has quit (Ping timeout: 120 seconds) [17:17] *Mio14 (~quassel@freenode-d66.hr0.odb5mq.IP) has joined #techbytes [17:19] *Techrights-sec is now known as ts2 ● Oct 25 [19:25] *psydroid2 has quit (connection closed) ● Oct 25 [20:21] *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techbytes [20:21] *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #techbytes
