bootstrap error

After Yesterday the website just stopped and started throwing up an internal server error, this is in the error log



I am running 4.0.3

I am desperate to get the site up and running again

You likely have whitespace in your index.php file (public_html/index.php) before the opening php tag. If you cannot see the whitespace in your usual text editor, try another text-based editor to remove the whitespace.
