Greetings everyone.

This is an interesting one, I have been uploading my Joomla sites today, two have uploaded easily, however, one of them, [http://essentialreading.freecluster.eu/](http://essentialreading.freecluster.eu/) will not update, due to the above error, I have tried to download the files directly, and via FTP, but I cannot beat it… Can anybody shine a light on this for me?

Thanks

Shine a light on what? Your website seems to be working fine from here.

I can’t update the backend Admin, from Joomla 3.1 to 3.3, due to an internal ajax server error, the others worked fine when I uploaded, but this one, I get this error, every time…

I’m sorry, but I don’t know enough about Joomla to comment on why one version might work but another one doesn’t.

It is telling me it is an internal server error, I do not have the server, so I can’t do anything. It is an AJAX problem…

“Internal Server Error” means that something broke on the server side. However, most often, this is just the website code crashing.

Try enabling PHP error display to see if any error messages pop up. This article describes how to do that: [https://infinityfree.net/support/http-error-500/](https://infinityfree.net/support/http-error-500/)

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 20 seconds exceeded in /home/vol13\_8/epizy.com/epiz\_20908957/htdocs/plugins/content/emailcloak/emailcloak.php on line 188 is what I got, disabled the plug in, and bingo, thanks for the help, much appreciated…

Now to try and fix the tags and the AJAX issue, but the categories now all work as they should…

That’s the same error which was already covered in this topic I think: [https://forum.infinityfree.com/discussion/3038/what-gives-with-this-category](https://forum.infinityfree.com/discussion/3038/what-gives-with-this-category)

The “Parse error” indicates the PHP file listed below contains an error which is why it’s not valid PHP. I checked the file, and it looks like the bottom part of the file was lost, it stops very suddenly. You may need to transplant a clean copy of that file to your account.

The easiest way to do so is to download a fresh copy of Joomla matching the version you have installed, find the file at the path shown above and then upload that to your account, overwriting the file currently there.

Ah I see, I’ll try that… so with softaculous not working, how do you suggest I do that?
