THANK YOU! I thought the error_reporting was on, but it was being overridden by a local file setting. Looks like we had a hacker trying to get a backdoor going by prepending to all php files a call to openvpn2/configure, which was not in the php path, so all the files broke. Now just have to deal with all the other issues the hacker created!
