Just wait.
Likely due to this

PHP 8.2 and MariaDB 10.4 upgrades!

iFastNet is doing a round of upgrades to add new features and better security to the free hosting platform! MariaDB 10.4 MariaDB is the variant of MySQL being used on free hosting. Over the last few weeks, the free hosting database servers have been upgraded from MariaDB 10.3 to MariaDB 10.4. MariaDB 10.4 contains various performance and security improvements compared to the previous version, and ensures our database servers are safe for the coming time. It also adds a small number of new feat…

I’ve been getting this error for quite a while now, probably more than a month.

You have to wait for admin then

[Admin]

The home directory for your account has been recreated now. You should be able to setup a website on your domain again.

As to what happened to any original files, I don’t know. I also can’t see when this issue started, which makes it harder to pinpoint.

This particular server was migrated to PHP 8.2 26 days ago. It’s possible that somehow the files on your account were lost during the migration. Unfortunately, the old server has already been wiped so there is no way to check if your files existed before the migration, let alone recover them.

We’re very sorry for any data loss we may have caused. Your account is the only account we know so far on which this has occurred, so this kind of data loss is really rare.
