Cleanup Never Finishes…

Hello,

thank you for reporting this. Are you able to check your php error logs for possible clues as to which line the plugin gets stuck on?

So after going thru my error log, this what I found…

[Wed Jan 27 01:08:06 2016] [error] [client 107.150.1.135] Premature end of script headers: wp-cron.php

As this is my most recent error & I see most the errors in that log is tied to my cron, I believe I got a good idea what’s causing it…

Hmm I don’t think that’s what is causing this, the plugin doesn’t make use of wp cron and I don’t see how its malfunction would cause it to stop working.

Another thing you can try is to make sure WP_DEBUG is set to true in your wp-config.php

Then, you open the browser console and switch to network tab. You start the cleanup process and watch the requests being made. Once the cleanup freezes, you check out the response of the last request to the admin-ajax.php file and see what the response is.

I could never get it to run when I turned WP_DEBUG on but I did find this when I turned it on…

Notice: The called constructor method for WP_Widget is deprecated since version 4.3.0! Use
__construct()
instead. in /home/wp_urnhvf/vanndigital.com/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3624

What do you mean you could never get it to run?

About the error you are getting, that is most likely coming from your theme. I would suggest switching to a default theme and trying to run a plugin with the WP_DEBUG enabled and following the process I described.

Hi, just checking in, were you able to solve the problem or get any more clues?

Thanks

My bad for the lateness. But yea, I took it off my server since I didn’t need it.

Oh, thanks for letting me know.

So after trying it again about an hour ago, I got the plugin working again…
