    Anyone has experienced or solved such an error:

    04-Mar-2020 17:50:02 UTC] PHP Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required ‘ABSPATHwp-includes/load.php’ (include_path=’.:/opt/cpanel/ea-php72/root/usr/share/pear’) in /home/designbu/public_html/wp-settings.php on line 19

    It came out over night, i imagine after some automatic update….

    I saw a past thread about contacting the host but it seems all good from their side…Help!

    1. What do the lines in wp-config.php regarding ABSPATH look like? It *should be*

    /* That's all, stop editing! Happy publishing. */

/** Absolute path to the WordPress directory. */
if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {
        define( 'ABSPATH', dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/' );
}

/** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
require_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php' );

    2. Is wp-load.php in the wp-includes directory? If not, let’s do a manual update of WordPress: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/article/updating-wordpress/#manual-update

    Update: Looking at http://designbureau.ge/, I see an index of files. Your site is, at the very least, missing “index.php” in the site root. Do the manual update, as noted above.

    Hi Steve and thanks for the help

    1. the file wp-config-sample.php has those lines
    2. wp-load.php is in the public_html folder (same as the wp-config-sample.php), but not is the wp-includes directory

    Will do the manual update as suggested

    Sorry, I meant “load.php” and not “wp-load.php”. I’m still on my first cup of coffee of the day. 🙂
