5.6.0.2 Installation not able to be completed

Permalink 1 user found helpful
I have been trying to install 5.6.0.2 and I have been getting the following error:

Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '..../concrete/helpers/concrete5_.php'

Attempting to dig through the source and figure out what's happening hasn't led me to any conclusions as of yet.

UPDATE: I noticed that I was able to view the installer page again each time I restarted Apache, but only once. That made me think it was a caching issue, although nothing was changing in the Concrete 5 cache so I thought it must be something else. I disabled APC and I have been able to continue with the installation process.

What's strange about this is that some an old install version of concrete 5 (5.4.2.2) works perfectly fine. But maybe I installed that before some updates to APC, can't be sure.

As I need APC to run for some other projects, I have solved the issue by adding the following to the sites .htaccess

php_flag apc.cache_by_default Off


Hopefully that helps if someone else has this issue.

FURTHER UPDATE: It appears that attempting to control APC caching from a .htaccess file doesn't work 100%. I had some issues uploading images and moving pages.

I have now added the following to my APC configuration and the site is working as expected.

apc.filters = "-/var/www/sitepath/.*"


This just filters any files that match the specified path.
