Apologies for adding to an old post but we have a similar error - when a user attempts to upload a files to a project, it failes with error: "Unable to connect to backend." Not sure when this would have started, it is possible it has been like this for a while, but no-one had tried uploading a file until now.
We are running Xerte 3.14.5-11 (updated 24/04/2026)
PHP v8.2 - all required extensions appear to be selected
I've set $development flag to true in config.php. Not sure if I am looking at the right error log - have found xerte/error_logs/debug.log which only showing this when upload is attempted:
2026-06-17 14:56:20 /home/[installation]/public_html/xerte/website_code/php/database_library.php177Running : SELECT * FROM sitedetails
2026-06-17 14:56:20 /home/[installation]/public_html/xerte/website_code/php/database_library.php125 parameters: Array

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
