Fix For "Incorrect Resource URL" Not Working

Question

I am getting the error "Incorrect Resource URL" and seeing 404 for URLs that go to "undefinedjs/jquery/jquery.crmAjaxTable.js" and many instances of the error "Unable to reach the server. Please refresh this page in your browser and try again."

I have tried resetting the URL (/admin/setting/updateConfigBackend?reset=1), adding a static path (civicrm/admin/setting/url?reset=1) and doing an override (https://docs.civicrm.org/sysadmin/en/latest/customize/settings/).

I am seeing the error in the UI and viewing the 404 using the browser console. I am also using the CV command from the command line and see that the generated path from (/admin/setting/updateConfigBackend?reset=1) does not match what I would expect.

[root@domain default]# cv path -c userFrameworkResourceURL https://crm.domian.org//home/user/public_html/sites/all/modules/civicrm

I think the URL should be https://crm.domian.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm.

This started when upgrading a Drupal 7 site to 4.7.28.

Help with this is greatly appreciated. I am out of ideas.

Thanks!

Answer 1

We've had basic authentication active on the installation which broke the check. After adding the server IP to the whitelist the error disappeared.

Answer 2

Just fixed this on my site by setting allow_url_fopen to "on" in php settings.

I had this issue, which came down to the l10n.js file not being created correctly. To troubleshoot this, I:

• Opened my browser's Developer Tools (by pressing F12);
• Went to the "Network" tab and filtered by "JS";
• Found the file that had my current language in the name (see screenshot - in this case, "en_US").
• Right-clicked the name and selected "Open in New Tab".

I saw an error message, which I was able to troubleshoot more directly.

For folks upgrading to Civi 5.3.x using multilingual, you're likely to encounter the same problem. The trick is to rebuild the multilingual schema. I did this with drush cvapi system.rebuildmultilingualschema, comparable commands exist for WordPress etc.

I figured this out because my images weren't loading, which I saw used the value CRM.config.resourceBase which this forum post told me was set in the l10njs/<language> file.
