try a re-install of the VM?

or go back to 3.4.2 if this is a bug

[extonjaez]

Hello,

I can't move to an other backend url. Site is blocked. Then i can't reinstall the component.
I just hope that this bug won't be in the next release. I will reinstall the site' backup..

by ftp is the file administrator\components\com_virtuemart\helpers\vmdefines.php there?

[extonjaez]

Yes i have this file in the directory...

[GJC Web Design]

then you need to switch on Joomla debug and error reporting full to find where this class is missing
post the results

[extonjaez]

With debug activated, i have this error :
An error has occurred.

I have put a message to : breakdesigns.net
https://breakdesigns.net/extensions/joomla/custom-fields-for-all

[GJC Web Design]

Ah .. so not VM

customfieldsforall

you need to update this extension ...

If u can't access your admin then just d/L this extension, extract it and ftp the file   bootstrap.php to plugins\system\customfieldsforallbase\

if it still doesn't work u need to contact the developer and say his ext needs an update

[extonjaez]

I have joint the file and made a ticket to the dev :
https://breakdesigns.net/support/tickets/custom-fields-for-all/Ticket/8140-class-vmdefines-not-found-when-update-com-virtuemart-3-4-2-9966-to-3-4-3-997
