Updating Groups plugin core failed.

Hi,

Thanks for using it ??

Regarding the message you get, can you please enable debugging and check if there are any errors coming up in the debug.log?

See Debugging in WordPress, summarized make sure to have these lines in your wp-config.php :

define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false );

The third line is optional. Then try to update the plugin and check in wp-content/debug.log – please post a link here to the contents pasted to pastebin.

You can also try to disable other plugins and make sure that your PHP memory limit is set at a decent amount.

Cheers

I had the same alert: “Updating Groups plugin core failed”. My problem was MYSQL user didn’t have ALTER and DROP permissions. Once added through cPanel, the alert disappeared.

@franquero Thanks for posting your solution!

Great plugin, thanks. Flawlessly in use in other install without any problems.

But new, local install with MAMP, same error as @prajakta ghole:

“Updating Groups plugin core failed.”

User permissions in MYSQL: all checked

Any idea?

Thanks for help!

Hi @studio BAERIG

Please try installing again after using delete all data on deactivation under Groups > Options and reinstall with debugging enabled and logged.

Please rather post your results on a new thread as this one is already resolved.

Cheers
