    • Additionally, if the permissions have been changed on your configure.php files, then perhaps they are too low for the files to be read.
    • Or the configure.php files could be missing altogether.
    • Or your web hosting provider has recently changed the server's PHP configuration (or upgraded its version) then they may have broken things as well.
