"My site is still on the old legacy Joomla platform but I did an update last week, which I probably shouldn't have done since everything was working fine. After the update I checked several features and all appeared to be operating properly. Then a week or so later I went back to add a photo to the Media Manager and now it times out and I get an error message." - (Unknown)

Its diverting me to the following page: http://www.my-site.xxx/administrator/index.php?option=com_media

and on this page the following error is coming: "Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/theaarc/public_html/libraries/joomla/filesystem/folder.php on line 506"

Here is the Image: Error Image

  • Try taking a backup of your site and upgrading to the Joomla 2.5 series as it's a more stable and secure version with a load more features that might interest you. – Lodder Dec 27 '12 at 13:52
  • what was your previous version? Joomla 1.0? – Lodder Dec 27 '12 at 14:08
  • @Lodder: Thanks for the tip but I already late now. I updated previously without backup, actually I'm new to Joomla. Did any way to revert Joomla to its previous version? – Dawood Butt Dec 27 '12 at 14:08

If you don't have a backup of your previous site before the upgrade, Im afraid reverting won't be possible else extremely hard and time consuming. Take a backup of the current website you have and try upgrading to Joomla 2.5, using jUpgrade.

I explained on this Stackoverflow post, why it is important to ensure your Joomla version is up to date.

Why should I keep my Joomla version up to date?

Once done, check if the Media Manager is working.

Hope this helps
