Call to a member function getOptions() on null

Question

I have a website that I have been working of for a few years on and off and today it broke...

After trying to access the site - (http://justhardware.co.uk/) I get the following error thrown.

Fatal error: Call to a member function getOptions() on null in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\justhardware.co.uk\httpdocs\app\Mage.php on line 329

The code on line 329 is:

327  - public static function getBaseDir($type = 'base')
328  - {
329  -     return self::getConfig()->getOptions()->getDir($type);
330  - }

Please help!

Answer 1

Fixed!

It was a permissions issue, Plesk wouldn't change the permissions for all users on the online interface.

To fix all i had to do was RDP into the server and change the permissions using IIS.

Not sure of the why's or where's of this but hope I can help someone else
