Locked Out of ADMIN section of Moodle site

Locked Out of ADMIN section of Moodle site

Hello everyone,

I am VERY new to Moodle.  It was intimidating. But I installed it, and started setting things up when I lost access to admin area. I really NEED help to regain access, or I may have to start at the beginning.   Please, kindly see details below:

  • Version of Moodle  -->  4.2.1+
  • Error message (exactly as seen) -->  
    Exception - Class "core_analytics\manager" not found
    Exception - Class "core_analytics\manager" not found

  • Operating system --> Ubuntu 20.04
  • Web server  --> Apache  
  • database  --> mariadb 10.14
  • PHP --> 8.1
  • Moodle installation - ->  directly via file manager in cPanel
  •  
  • What happened? I installed the almondb theme from Moodle. there was a link to install a "hypage" plugin for the theme (see link below). I could not get it upload via plugins in Moodle so I added it via cPanel. everything looked fine on front page; but, when I tried to access administration link, I get the above error. I deleted the plugin. but still cannot access the admin section. I CAN login --- but once I click the administration link, I get that above error message (two lines as pasted). I have not been able to find the issue. no response from theme contact persons - on this particular point. I truly would appreciate your help.
  • Plugin link: https://github.com/themesalmond/moodle-local_almondbpage
  • I cannot change anything because I simply cannot access the administration 

P.s   ---> I am not a developer, or any web professional ---> if I get simple clear detailed instructions, I will find what I need to. I would appreciate kind practical help

Thanks for all practical help

Basya

Well, you asked for 'practical help' ... so how about an SoS page?

Download: https://sos.sosoftexas.org/sospage.zip

Upload sospage.zip into the root of your Moodle code and unzip it.

That will create an sos.html page

Login to the moodle, then with your browser line go to:
https://yoursite/sos.html

The page provides direct links to admin areas by relative addressing.
Hopefully, you can navigate to areas like plugins and remove that theme + the extra thingy to get your site back functional.

Also, find the debug lines in the config-dist.php flie at root of your code, add those lines to your config.php file to get more info about what's wrong.   If debug displays stuff, copy and paste that info to a text file, then come back here and share what it showed.

'SoS', Ken

Re: Locked Out of ADMIN section of Moodle site

by B R -
Ps. I am still unable to access the site administration. Debugging information shows up on PHP 8.0 while PHP 7.4 returns "Exception - syntax error, unexpected '|', expecting variable (T_VARIABLE)" ; and PHP 8.1 returns Exception - Class "core_analytics\manager" not found (twice)
Exception - Class "core_analytics\manager" not found

All additional help advice appreciated. Thanks Sir Ken very much.

Re: Locked Out of ADMIN section of Moodle site

Picture of Particularly helpful Moodlers
Uhhh ... please, let's drop the 'sir'! smile

You are on latest/greatest 4.2.x of moodle.   Cannot run it with PHP 7.4.  Stay with version 8.1 of PHP.

This might have to do with the theme you installed.   Does the sos.html page have a link to additional plugins or themes and does that work?   Not running 4.2.x yet myself so I assume the sos.html page does allow you to get to additonal plugins or themes.

Your debug shows repeatedly 'Duplicate directory' then tells you the name of the directory ... just about every directory that's in /admin/ when it's a stock install - no almondb theme.

In looking at that theme you also installed it's add-on which installed something in /local/ I think.

Quick test ... in your config.php file, add a line to force the theme to boost.

$CFG->theme='boost';

You should leave debugging lines in config.php until we can figure this out.
Don't have to restart services just hit the site and see if you can login.

'SoS', Ken

The sos.html page have a link to additional plugins or themes but they do NOT work. Clicking returns an error as prior

adding $CFG->theme='boost'; to config.php file, returns the following (still no access)

Re: Locked Out of ADMIN section of Moodle site

If you notice, the debug repeats lines like:

Duplicate admin category name: users
Then related errors in rendering ...
Duplicate admin category name: courses
Then related errors in rendering ...
Duplicate admin category name: grades
Then related errors in rendering ...
etc.

Themes in moodle are inline ... meaning if a theme messes up,
one might be able to login, but that's about it.
No admin area access is critical and directly related to that theme.

So now it's time to get nasty!

Manually erase the almondb directory from the themes directory.
Also manually erase the /local/ directory add-on ... not the /local/ directory
but it's contents related to that theme.

Then try to navigate to the plugins page via sos.html.
Will say missing from disk for the things you manually removed,
update the DB anyway because we need to remove the DB references
to that theme and add-on to that in /local/.

Re: Locked Out of ADMIN section of Moodle site

The git hub link that took you to where you could acquire the extra plug-in for that theme when unzipped locally, created a directory:

moodle-local_almondbpage-main

Inside the directory is a almodbpage directory as well as a almodbpaage-demo directory.

Directions to install say to upload the almodbpage directory to /local/

All of that is not the typical way of installing plugins.

If you cannot get to the admin area for additional plugins where one should see
an un-install link, the only way you have left is to use whatever tool you have
to browse files/folders on server, and manually remove those specific directories:

code/themes/almond and code/local/almodbpage

Re: Locked Out of ADMIN section of Moodle site

Hello Ken,

I started making what seem to be progress - the initial installation screen came up and I followed the process. when I click the administration it threw the same error codes as above. I did another backup so I could save a few things, and decided to reinstall Moodle fresh. which I did. Then will move over the files I need

My guess would be an error in an optional plugin. If you have installed any non-core plugins or themes, get rid of them.

Hello,

I did and that did not work. I searched for every trace I could find and remove them and nothing worked.

"reinstall ... Then will move over the files I need" ...

What 'files'?  Think you mean directories, but ....
I hope NOT the theme and extra addon that theme wanted to install - you could end up right back you started.
