    Hey guys. One of my blogs has recently been having a problem. The index just shows a filetree and the error.log shows this:

    [20-Jun-2018 11:40:28 Europe/Lisbon] PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant ABSPATH – assumed ‘ABSPATH’ in /home/ptfighte/public_html/lockdown/wp-settings.php on line 19

    [20-Jun-2018 11:40:28 Europe/Lisbon] PHP Warning: require(ABSPATHwp-includes/load.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/ptfighte/public_html/lockdown/wp-settings.php on line 19

    [20-Jun-2018 11:40:28 Europe/Lisbon] PHP Warning: require(ABSPATHwp-includes/load.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/ptfighte/public_html/lockdown/wp-settings.php on line 19

    [20-Jun-2018 11:40:28 Europe/Lisbon] PHP Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required ‘ABSPATHwp-includes/load.php’ (include_path=’.:/opt/alt/php56/usr/share/pear:/opt/alt/php56/usr/share/php’) in /home/ptfighte/public_html/lockdown/wp-settings.php on line 19

    My phpversion is 5.6, checked now on the cPanel. Also, my file structure is such that the blog is not on the root (public_html) but on a folder that is on the root. This has not been a problem for several years. Anyone know what might be going on?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hello,

    I think it should be the ../wp-option.php instead of ../wp-settings.php

    I hope this helps.

    ABSPATH is defined in wp-config.php. What do the last few lines of wp-config.php look like?

    This is the sample file:

    /** Absolute path to the WordPress directory. */
if ( !defined('ABSPATH') )
        define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/');

/** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php');

    Dear Steve,
    it looks like this:

    /** Absolute path to the WordPress directory. */
if ( !defined('ABSPATH') )
	define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/');

/** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php');

    Please ask your host to verify that PHP is operating correctly.
