After 3.8 Joomla update - Error 500 JHtmlJquery::token not found Shows in Global Configuration under Server tab

[Simini]

HI

I'm getting 500 Error JHtmlJquery::token not found after 3.8 Joomla update in Global Configuration under Server tab

I tried to dig a little and saw that it happens in JROOT/administrator/components/com_config/view/application/tmpl/default_mail.php:12

It fails to call to JHtml::_('jquery.token'); and gets 500 Error

Any help will be very much appritiated

Thanks in advance
Simon

Hi, have you managed to solve this? Same issue here on one of my sites. Tried running update again, blah blah, still same issue.

I can see the Global config page, but all save buttons and menu, etc is missing. And this is displayed in the browser title:

Error: 500 JHtmlJquery::token not found.

J 3.8.1
PHP 7

Hi Jack Goa
1. Did you make backup before Joomla! 3.8.x update?
2. Please run viewtopic.php?f=621&t=582860 and post results.

I'd also suggest taking a look at viewtopic.php?f=710&t=955179#p3494663 as this issue probably indicates an extension overloading the core JHtmlJquery class and needing an update for the new method added in 3.8.

Ha! JV Framework as per the post by mbabker. This is an old 3.4.5 site I updated. Can't even remember why I had JV Framework in there. Seems they're discontinued now anyway?

Thanks!

PS, I've started dreading these updates. I've lost track of all the websites I've got out there. You get comfortable running the updates and after the 4th or 5th one get lazy about doing a backup first.... I know, I know...

First of all, apologies for my bad English.

I have a solution, it is not the most elegant but it works to make a temporary patch, while migrating to another template system. mbabker was right, JV Libraries plugin is overloading the core JHtmlJquery class, specifically the file "plugins/system/jvlibs/javascripts/jvjslib.php" i just copied the core class from de core in "libraries/cms/html/jquery.php" and just work again.

Please could you help me with that? which file i need to copy ?

Hi carstyle79
Do you have a System - JV Libraries plugin?

[leolam]

This is all crap and you do not change core files. @Wojsmol don't go that advise direction please!

Hi leolam
I have not planned any modifications to the Joomla! core files.

Hi!
Same issue...after upgrading to J!3.8.1

I have System - JV Libraries plugin...if I disable this plugin, Global Configuration works fine...

Someone find a solution?

Thanks!

[Jack Goa]

Uninstall JV Libraries...

Thank you ironrai for solution.

My solution was to rename the class to JHtmlJqueryy in plugins/system/jvlibs/javascripts/jvjslib.php Website working fine - class is not used.

[wlam69]

Thanks a lot Dmitry / b2z.

I had this problem since updating to Joomla 3.7 and was looking for a solution as the template provider does not exist anymore. I just renamed the following line 77 in plugins/system/jvlibs/javascripts/jvjslib.php:

Code: Select all

abstract class JHtmlJquery

to

Code: Select all

abstract class JHtmlJqueryy

and everything works smoothly....

Thanks a lot for this 5 seconds solution!

Yup, that was it, nice work, thanks !!

When I do this fix, I cannot login to the back end of joomla anymore. I just get an error on the screen.
I am on joomla 3.8.3
