Description of my issue:
I don't have a backup or restoration issue. I was having an issue with uploading files as they were too big. I changed my PHP variables in PHP variables manager in cPanel (Siteground).
max_input_vars: 5000
upload_max_filesize: 20M
post_max_size: 20M
I was then able to install Akeeba Backup 4.3.1. Lovely. Then I installed the latest version of JCE which is apparently a security update. At first it white screened. I deleted .htaccess and things worked again, I readded .htaccess and things continued to work. Strange behaviour I thought. I installed JCE again, and it finished the installation this time.
I cleared my cache.
Everything is working except when I click on components > admin tools/akeeba backup, other components work. The Akeeba ones white screen.
I deleted .htaccess once more, the issue persisted.
I turned on max_error_reporting in Joomla. I see this error.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')' in ****/public_html/libraries/f0f/input/input.php on line 83
I assume it's an Akeeba error from installing the new Akeeba Backup?
Nothing on your site had this error when I did a Google search. None of the tickets had the same error either.
