Re: Fatal error

Hi Gallex
Would this be a plugin issue? Did you try switching off plugins, one at a time, to check which one might be producing this error?

Re: Fatal error

Also check your txplib_misc.php is really up to date. That function (see GitHub) was added in txp 4.7.2.

you are right, this file hasn’t been updated and it doesn’t let me do this as well. :)
i can’t delete it, i can’t rewrite it in ftp server – what is going on? :)

Re: Fatal error

There was something similar recently about some hosts blocking certain files, or owning them.

Can you check the owner of that/those files and see if it is the same as the others. My hosts admin panel offers a way to reset permissions in such cases.

Another thing to try – if it lets you – is to upload the file under another name, e.g. txplib_misc.new, then rename the existing one to old and the new file to .old.

Re: Fatal error

host claimed that the txplib_misc.php file was quarantined because it was infected with malware.

Probably the same issue as the other threads about the file being locked. eval(…) is causing automated scripts run by the host to think this file is malware.
