I get a 500 error with JHtmlBehavior::mootools not found

Post by kkeough88 » Wed Feb 22, 2017 11:05 pm

Upgrading from 2.5.28 to 3.5.1 then 3.6.5

admin works great but site gives the error 500 error with JHtmlBehavior::mootools not found

have read it's probably an incompatible component/template/plugin

main question is, can i disable plugins to see if they cause the problem, or must i uninstall them

since i'm searching for the culprit, it would be nice to just disable until i find the offender, then i can simply enable the others instead of reinstalling them

thanks in advance

also, if you can suggest what might component/template/plugin be causing this problem that would be awesome

i only have the purity 3 template installed for the site

Don't HACK the Joomla! core, Instead "Extend" and/or "Override."
Stay ON the update path.

thanks ranwilli, i have already read that post.

but with so many classes it is hard to find which class it is

so that is why i asked my other important question: is it enough to just disable a plugin, or do i really have to fully uninstall it? i would hope disable is enough so that i can just re enable them when i find the one breaking things

thanks
