Hello,


We got a problem. Our forum is updated with the latest SMF Version 2.0.17. We are also using the latest Tapatalk mode version and an SMF Mobile Theme. But every now and then, the forum can't be accessed due to this error: Unable to load the 'WIRELESS_PROTOCOL_above' template

If I repair the database via phpmyadmin, the forum becomes accessible again. But then, the same problem about wireless protocol template emerges again after few hours. What is the final solution to this? What could be the cause? Here's the url of this bohol forum site

Do you have the wireless.template.php file in your themes/default folder?

That's not the root index.php.  Look in the main forum directory, should be around 15kb.

vbgamer, here's the index.ph (attached) from the root folder of the smf installation.
thank you.

That looks ok... might be a theme/mod issue it should say that error WIRELESS_PROTOCOL would be replaced with wap or imode

This has been reported several times.  Repairing all database tables fixes it.

I have repaired the database several times but the problem keeps coming back. Is there a solution?

vbgamer, what is your suggestion on what we should do for now?

  -> mod issue <-

If repairing tables fixes it, then it recurs, a mod is probably breaking something in the database.  You can upload a clean set of files and reinstall mods one at a time until it breaks again, but without seeing all your installed mods, I'd guess it's Tapatalk causing the problem.


Interesting, can't clear the new posts icon from this post. ???

That's also my suspension. Tapatalk could be the root cause of the problem. The wireless protocol issue continues to pester our forum site.

The root cause of the problem was the poor server configuration of the hosting provider. I moved to a cloud hosting provider and replaced cPanel with Plesk. I optimized both the VPS and Plesk and the problem never showed up again.
