    Hello
    I am trying to recover my site from a HTTP Error 500 after updating Worpress to 4.7.3 – I’m not sure what version I was on prior to failure.
    I have renamed my active theme so twentyfifteen should be the default.
    I have edited wp_options using phpMyAdmin active_plugins to a:0:{}
    I have renamed .htaccess

    I now have an error:

    Warning: require (/home/mysite/public_html/wp-includes/random_compat/random.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mysite/public_html/wp-includes/compat.php on line 435

    and also:

    Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required ‘/home/mysite/public_html/wp-includes/random_compat/random.php’ (include_path=’.:/opt/alt/php55/usr/share/pear:/opt/alt/php55/usr/share/php’) in /home/mysite/public_html/wp-includes/compat.php on line 435

    I have also asked my site host Net Virtue for the error logs and tried to manually add WordPress install files for 4.7.3.

    – Please check the error logs on your server for a more specific error message and see why it’s failing. If you need help locating them, ask your hosting provider to help you with that.
    – If you cannot find error logs or if you don’t find any helpful info in the error logs, try Enabling debugging

    Thank you. Our host was able to switched our php version back to native which along with a few other things got us back to where we needed to be.
