SMF Problems

[HabboHaze]

SMF Version: SMF 1.1 RC2
Ok. I installed my SMF about a month or 2 ago and it's been working ever since. Up until today.

I went on to my forum (hxxp:www.ihabbo2.x10hosting.com [nonactive]) and this is what it showed:

Warning: require_once(/backups/home/habbohaz/public_html/forum/Sources/TPortal.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /backups/home/habbohaz/public_html/forum/index.php on line 53

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/backups/home/habbohaz/public_html/forum/Sources/TPortal.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /backups/home/habbohaz/public_html/forum/index.php on line 53


Does anyone have any suggestions or know how to fix this?

Are you using Tiny Portal?  If so, have you asked for assistance at the TP website?

I'm not using tiny portal, I don't even know what that is xD

Is there any way to reinstall SMF but keep all the members, MySql tables and Mods?

Tables and data yes. Mods no (Mod data, yes, usually).

That error message is showing up because some files for TinyPortal (think of it as like PostNuke, but lighter and SMF-focused) are missing. They should only appear if it has been installed as a mod and something went wrong.

To clean up SMF, just re-upload all the files from the install package for the version you are using. Do NOT upload Settings.php, Settings_bak.php, or install.php. This upload will remove all installed mods, but should keep your data intact (you will need to re-apply any mods you had installed).

I highly recommend making a database backup and possibly a file backup before trying this.
