CB is definitely installed, but since a new update came out a couple of days ago I went ahead and updated it. Hopefully that resolves it showing as not installed. I think during migration something made the system think it wasn't installed despite the fact that CB was fully working on my frontend.

That said, after doing this, re-enabling CB integration still causes the same 500 error.

The community builder still doesn't appear. It should appear under Third-party components below in the configuration report. Something is wrong. Try the following:
1. Rename the htaccess.txt to .htaccess
2. Check in System -> Extensions -> (search by keyword "comm") if everything from the CB is activated
3. Check if the CB works without Kunena (with disabled integration plugin)
4. If yes, download Kunena and unzip the zip file
5. Uninstall the Kunena CB integration plugin
6. Install this plugin from the extracted zip file (it is the plugin plg_kunena_comprofiler)
7. Test again

I already fixed the htaccess file earlier, but after going through the rest of your steps the same things happens still. Community builder seems to work fine. I can log in and view users and even approve user registrations still.

I just read through www.kunena.org/forum/12-Community-Builde...ntegration-500-error and set my default language away from US English back to GB English and suddenly no 500 error when the cb integration plugin is on. I'm still testing things to make sure. While I understand that Kunena isn't in US English, having your Joomla site be in US English probably shouldn't cause such a horrible defect. That said, it still isn't showing in the config report so if there's any other information I can provide to help with that let me know.

Thank you very much, now that you have brought it to my attention, I know where the problem lies. You can also find the solution in this linked topic. Kunena itself has an option to automatically load the en-GB language for the forum if no translation of the selected language is available. Unfortunately, this does not apply to the plugins or extensions.
Don't worry about the configuration report if everything else is fine.

Cool. I did have Use English On Missing Strings set to on so I guess I didn't think to check this possibility at first. The error certainly didn't help either as it definitely mislead me into thinking this was a larger problem with the migration like many of the other plugins on my site that are still suffering ill effects. Thanks for the support either way.

Do note like I said earlier that this bug can brick the backend and leave you unable to recover it (without some table editing I imagine) if you put the forum into maintenance mode while you have this error. I'm not sure if it will crop up without error reporting to max but I assume it would just error 500 on the backend. That's probably the biggest frustration I suffered from this behavior. So to anyone else reading this, definitely something to watch out for in this current version of Kunena.
