Question Cant open forum category after update (K1.7.1)

Hi guys,

i've just realized that i cant open any forum category. Clicking on the name of the category shows "Kunena Internal Error: Please contact site administrator to fix this issue!" but clicking on any topic from the "Recent topics" tab works just fine.

Third-party components: CommunityBuilder 1.7.1 | UddeIm 2.0

We do not provide support for templates created by the TemplateKunena team. You should ask for help with that template by contacting the author of that template.

As far as "internal errors" are concerned, I suggest that you read HTTP 500 Internal Server Error and enable debug mode - details on how to do that are given in that article.

Looks to me that you have a clash in your Kunena menu. Please read the FAQs page (see the menu item at the top of pages on this forum) for How do I restore my Kunena menu? I think that will solve your problems.

You should also update Kunena Stats, Kunena Login and Kunena Search if you want to use those things. with K 1.7.1.

Thanks for your reply sozzled, i've switched the template the first time i saw the error but it's not template related. Enabling the debugger shows:

i'll look into the provided links and i'll let you know if i sort the problem.

Hello,

What do you do to have this error ? Do you have upgraded Kunena ? Making changes on database ?

Just updated from 1.6.3 to 1.7.1 nothing changed on the database but i did encountered error while updating. The problem was with the jos_announcements table, i had to recreate it and everything went smooth.

What happens when you enable Joomla and Kunena debug mode?

I still feel that the issue relates, in part, to the Kunena menu (but I could be wrong).
