I have just run the updates shown below (from the email sent to me).
An update to ca-certificates from 2017.2.11-70.1.el7_3 to 2017.2.14-70.1.el7_3 is available.
An update to rpcbind from 0.2.0-38.el7_3 to 0.2.0-38.el7_3.1 is available.
The updates themselves seemed to run perfectly well, but when I tried to go back to System Information, while the menu on the left hand side of the screen displayed perfectly well, the content of the System Information screen simply displays 'Error - file not found'. The same happens if I try to go to Webmin - clicking on Webmin refreshes the screen as a total blank except for the same message 'Error - file not found'.
All other functionality appears to be working normally (but I haven't been through every menu option).
All suggestions most welcome.

Howdy -- thanks for contacting us!
I'm unfortunately not seeing that particular issue on my own CentOS 7 systems here.
But what we can do is try and sort out what file is missing there.
I don't imagine there's any additional info found in /var/webmin/miniserv.error?
That sounds like the theme has been changed. Reload the whole page a couple of times and see if the problem persists. (The way Webmin handles themes confuses the caching in browsers, since paths and files don't change for different themes, even though the content does.)
And, it is definitely unrelated to the two package you mention. Webmin doesn't use either one directly, and would not be affected in this way even if they had problems.

Thanks both. Sorry to have been slow responding but I was away from my machine unexpectedly.
Having read your responses, I tried to refresh by clicking repeatedly on System Information in Virtualmin and on the main Webmin tab. When I click on System Information, I get the Virtualmin menu, but 'Error - file not found' in the main body of the screen. When I click on the main Webmin tab, I get 'Error - file not found' in the left hand 'menu' column (wrapped because it is in a very large font and won't fit otherwise) and exactly the same message again in the main body.
So , having read your comments Joe (paraphrased as 'it just can't happen'), I thought I would test the URL in a new tab in Firefox, so I Ctrl-Ced/Ctrl-Ved the URL and got straight in with no error.
So, the problem, if it is one, is within the individual tab in the browser. So, thank you for your help - much appreciated. I shall let you know if the problem rears its head again. It has never happened to me before and hopefully won't again. For what it's worth, the browser is Firefox 54.0 running on Windows 7. The Virtualmin installation is running on Ubuntu Linux 12.04.4 Webmin version 1.844 Virtualmin version 5.99 Kernel and CPU Linux 3.5.0-54-generic on x86_64.
Thanks for all your help. Much appreciated.

I'm glad to hear Joe's solution worked there! Thanks for letting us know.
