Error at top of admin.php page

I know this question has been asked before, and I have searched several variations on how to solve it. Nothing has worked so far. I have tried loading up several different versions of PHP-Nuke to see if that would solve the problem, but 6.0, 6.5, and 6.7 all give me the same error at the top of the page. The error says:

Warning: Unable to access modules/admin/language/lang-english.php in /export/apache/htdocs/html/mainfile.php on line 81

After you enter the superuser information, and log into the admin.php, it is full of the same types of errors:

Warning: Unable to access themes/DeepBlue/images/admin/stories.gif in /export/apache/htdocs/html/admin.php on line 107

Warning: Unable to access themes/DeepBlue/images/admin/backup.gif in /export/apache/htdocs/html/admin.php on line 107

Warning: Unable to access themes/DeepBlue/images/admin/banners.gif in /export/apache/htdocs/html/admin.php on line 107

Warning: Unable to access themes/DeepBlue/images/admin/blocks.gif in /export/apache/htdocs/html/admin.php on line 107

...etc... But all of the images that it says it can't access, are available below all of the errors.

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. I have been racking my brain on this for over a week now and I'll bet it is a simple fix. Thank you.

Would you please post line 81 and 107 from mainfile.php? Also, is this server on Windows?

Thank you for helping Raven.

Below is the function in mainfile.php that contains line 81. Line 81 is in bold text.

function get_lang($module) {
global $currentlang, $language;
if (file_exists("modules/$module/language/lang-$currentlang.php")) {
if ($module == admin) {
include_once("admin/language/lang-$currentlang.php");
} else {
include_once("modules/$module/language/lang-$currentlang.php");
}
} else {
if ($module == admin) {
include_once("admin/language/lang-$currentlang.php");
} else {
include_once("modules/$module/language/lang-$language.php");
}
}
}

Line 107: if ($aid != "" AND $pwd != "") {

The website is running on a Solaris 9 server. Right now it is running PHP-Nuke 6.0, but I get the same type of errors with 6.5 and 6.7, just on different lines.

Thanks again for helping.

Try putting the '@' in front of the file_exists function. So it becomes @file_exists

Raven,

That was it! Do you know why the errors have to be suppressed (@) when that function is called? It's funny because inside of the administration window, it would throw all those errors about unable to access the various gif's, but they would all be shown below the errors. Thank you very much for your help....now I can move on with the rest of this to get the site back up.

Yes, but I can't rememebr why! Laughing

Old age again. I just know that certain sites experience it and we don't know why, as far as I know.
