Can't login - base64_decode() error

[jwzumwalt]

If you can't login and start getting an error similar to...

 

PHP Warning: base64_decode() has been disabled for security reasons in .... /store/classes/Rijndael.php

 

It is caused because your IP Provider has disabled the base64_decode() function in your server.

They must remove the base64_decode string from the disable_functions in the php.ini* config file.

 

I created this short PHP test program and put it in my store directory while they tried to fix the problem.

 

<h2>Test Code For PHP base64_decode()</h2>
If the base 64 function works properly, you should<br>
see <i>"This is an encoded string"</i> printed out.<br>
<br>
You are attempting to run this code...
<div style="background-color:#def; width: 450px; margin-left:25px;">
<xmp>
 error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);
 ini_set('display_errors', '1');
 $str = 'VGhpcyBpcyBhbiBlbmNvZGVkIHN0cmluZw==';
 echo base64_decode($str);

</xmp>
</div>

<?php
 error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);
 ini_set('display_errors', '1');
 $str = 'VGhpcyBpcyBhbiBlbmNvZGVkIHN0cmluZw==';
 echo base64_decode($str);
?>
