Hello,

During updating Joomla Version 3.8.0 , I encountered some problem. First , I updated Joomla version using normal method(components/Joomla update) and there was en error message (AJAX Loading Error: Forbidden) and no updating anymore. So I updated version manually (i.e uploading joomla files(except installation folder) to my root directory using FTP) also found some error (Application Instantiation Error) and I lost access to backend (Super Admin).

Can you please advise me how to solve this ?

Thank you!

Best Regards,
Richard.
