    Try manually resetting your plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.

    If that does not resolve the issue, access your server via FTP or SFTP, navigate to /wp-content/themes/ and rename the directory of your currently active theme. This will force the default theme to activate and hopefully rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

    Hi! I’m having the same issue. PHP version 5.2.5.

    I disabled plugins and themes but no luck, I don’t know what to do…

    PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function hash() in /datos/srv/www/htdocs/wordpress/wp-includes/session.php on line 64

    Вам необходимо подключить расширение hash в php

    I have this problem too (((

    Anyone tried re-upload all wordpress files over FTP? I will try that now

    hash() is a normal PHP function added in PHP 5.1.2. This error normally should not happen if you use PHP 5.2.4 or higher.

    Ask your host if the PHP hash extension is installed.

    Thank you keesiemeijer! That is the solution.

    I managed to fuck up my install though when manually updating all files. Now I got another error (in Swedish): “Din PHP installation verkar sakna MySQL till?gget som WordPress kr?ver.”
    Something like “Your PHP installation seems to be missing the MySQL extensions required by wordpress”

    It seems your PHP environment is missing more extentsions. Ask your host.

    use PHP5.3 and have this error

    @orenburger

    Did you contact your host?

    Well the host gives me access to php.ini myself.

    Adding hash as you said fixed that problem immediately. Both mysql and mysqli extensions are loaded in php.ini as well.
    Browsing the wordpress site works fine. But logging into admin does not.

    Will recover yesterdays backup and see what happens

    i activated “HASH” PHP module and error disappeared!

    Restored yesterdays file backup, updated wordpress again. Problem solved.
    Hopefully database is not corrupt in any way as I only let wordpress handle update, even again when I had old version wordpress files.

    Xonium, you simply uploaded the old .php files?

    JeroenK, yes I uploaded file backup of my wordpress site to solve the other problem which I had:
    “Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress.”
    And then upgraded wordpress again to version 4.

    The solution for “Fatal error: Call to undefined function hash() in “
    is to enable hash extensions.
    If you happen to have access to php.ini you could be able to uncomment the line:
    ;extension=hash.so
    But this is can be different from host to host.
