I'm trying to secure my install of EE by following the instructions here, which involve moving my system directory above my web root, and renaming it.
My site loads fine, and I can even navigate to parts of the control panel by deep-linking into CP sections. However, when visiting the CP home, I get the following PHP error:
Fatal error: Call to a member function send_ajax_response() on a non-object in
/Users/charlesgallant/ ... path ... /stem/expressionengine/core/EE_Exceptions.php
on line 62
-- EE 2.6.1, running on Apache 2.2.3, with php 5.3.2 (and have tested 5.4.10)
I've checked:
- File Permissions
- Disabling plugins
- Others who have found this error have mis-named some folders or failed an upgrade, but that doesn't appear to be the case here.
- Making sure the paths in all my config files are correct (which they MUST be, if I can access my site AND sections of my control panel).
I've tried commenting out some offending blocks of code around line 62, and I was able to raise this error:
Unable to load your default controller. Please make sure the controller
specified in your Routes.php file is valid.
...and yes, this file appears valid to the best of my knowledge.
Any thoughts are appreciated - thanks in advance =)
==UPDATE==
I can subvert this error and at least render the login page by adding blank query parameters to the url:
Visiting myDomain.com/admin.php?S=0&D=cp&C=login
works,
Visiting myDomain.com/admin.php?
throws the above fatal PHP error. How is this possible!?!? Either way, I still can't see the actual homepage for my control panel, so I can't accept this workaround.
