Hi there,
I am a long time Moodle user and admin but very inexperienced on the server site, databases, php, etc. Essentially, I'm good inside Moodle, but not outside. I'm in a pickle. I needed to start a fresh Moodle install on my hosted server - cpanel, php, mysql.
Moodle package downloaded today from Moodle.org 3.8.1+ and installed completely fresh with a new DB. Install went very smoothly (I've done that before).
I'm getting a number of errors but I've been searching for hours and cannot figure out how to fix them. My webhost is not familiar with Moodle but insists that /Moodledata and /Moodle file permissions are all correct.
I don't know how to get more error information to narrow this down further. I've tried completely reinstalling again and that results in the same error. I thought it might have to do with a language pack error so I reinstalled those.
Error 1 - triggered when you click "Update profile" when trying to change the user profile picture. Tried on Admin account and on an authenticated user/student account. Same error regardless. And yes, I have checked folder permissions (as much as I know how) and my hosting support says that I have plenty (unlimited) disk space.
Error 2 - triggered when I went to the GUI option to install new language packs.
Are these related? If you need more information, please tell me where to find it. I'm very willing to do legwork - I just don't know where to start (other than many, many Google searches, poring through old bug reports, forums, etc.)
