This error usually occurs when script packages are missing. If you have a firewall, then make sure to allow access to *.softaculous.com domains to be able to download all packages. If your firewall is blocking access to Softaculous domains, then the script library will not be able to function or update properly.
Note: Please allow access to the following domains to your firewall as these are the mirrors used to download the script packages.
- api.softaculous.com (IP: 192.198.80.3)
- s1.softaculous.com (IP: 158.69.6.246)
- s2.softaculous.com (IP: 192.200.108.99)
- s3.softaculous.com (IP: 178.32.158.97)
- s4.softaculous.com (IP: 138.201.24.83)
- s7.softaculous.com (IP: 167.114.200.240)
