HELP! 2.11 GUI broken / Fatal XML error

Hello everybody!

I think I might have a problem with my Asterisk-system. I am running PBX in a Flash as Virtual Machine with Asterisk 11.4 and FreePBX 2.11 in a VMWare Workstation environment on a Windows 2008 R2 Server.

Everything worked fine until yesterday.

Suddenly, when opening FreePBX in a browser, there is an error message.

FATAL ERROR XML error: > required at line 7 Trace Back /var/www/html/admin/libraries/xml2Array.class.php:50 die_freepbx() [0]: XML error: > required at line 7

I don’t know what happend, I didn’t change anything on the VM or the Asterisk-server. I only made some changes to the Windows server, because I wanted to use it as a VPN-Server. But I have reverted these changes.

Please help me out there. I don’t want to do a recovery.

Thanks a lot!

Andy

You did something else you aren’t telling us

rm -Rf /var/www/html/admin/motif

Hi and thanks a lot. That did it. I have been looking for something like that but couldn’t figure it out. Thanks for your help.

In the meantime, I have set up a new VM from scratch with Asterisk 11.5. I got everything to work, but my Cisco 7970 didn’t register. It seems to be a problem with Asterisk 11.5. With 11.4, everything is working fine.

By the way: I really didn’t change anything. Really :slight_smile: I don’t understand how motif could break. I don’t even use it!
