Hi There,

I’ve run into an issue using an new host: [Hostinger](http://www.hostinger.com) using PHP 7.4

The debug throws a  
`Module 'sqlite3' already loaded`  
Error on the site as well as the panel.

If I disable debug, the front end of the site works, but panel is riddled .json parse errors. I’ve tried my site as well as a stock startekit install and am having the same issue. The site runs fine on my local server.

Has anyone come across this before?

That sometimes happens when there is some server misconfiguration. Check if you can disable `sqlite3` in the php.ini files.

Thanks for that @texnixe !

For anyone coming here using Hostinger, this can be done in the panel:

_Advanced → PHP Configuration → PHP Extensions → uncheck_ `sqlite3`
