Can you help me with that error log?

Dear bb-team

I’m running your beaver theme and plugin on a multisite environment where clients build and customize their own websites. In the error-log file on my server I regularly find error messages like the one below. Do you have any idea what causes those errors?

Thanks for your help

Hey Dominic,

I think the first few errors, referring to the missing image, is simply caching. It’s quite possible the site is still loading a cached version of the page where it was still using that image but the image is no longer available. On the last one though, I don’t think a 1010.php or any PHP files at all should be present on the uploads folder. Does it not state which file is trying to load that script?

Ben

Hi Ben
Thanks for your explanation. Actually I don’t have any PHP in my uploads folder. I have no idea what this error means.

Hey Dominic,

That should be the case. I’m just wondering what file was looking for that script inside the uploads folder. I did a quick Google and found the link below you may want to check. Also, you hosting might have some info as to where this request is coming from.
