[Plugin: wp Time Machine] Installation failed on WP 2.9.2

Unfortunately, still no…. Same error…

I’ve checked the following:
* I didn’t parse .php5 before, added this to my configuration
(which should not be an issue, as you require the content of the file, and it gets parsed through the original php file…. right?)

* I had different file permissions, now changed all contents and subfolders to 774 (upload user is in the same group as the webserver user) (To be sure…)

* add the plugin to another domain I run on the same server (is a replication of the other version though from a while back) and reproduced the error there.
* and to be sure, just created a fresh instance….

when I try to load the plugins/wp-time-machine/includes/wpTimeMachineCore.php5 file directly in the browser, I see no code or output (not sure if I would see anything, but it does not give me any errors either

I can provide you access to a test environment I have, which has the same issues… But we’re better to not discuss that on the forum.

It loads!

what have I changed? I’ve edited the file plugins/wp-time-machine/includes/wpTimeMachineCore.php5 to replace all instances of <? to <?php

In my php.ini I have turned the shortened use explicitly off…

I’m now trying to get the FTP part working….

I’ve been going through the source code, because I saw some problems with my FTP workings.

Most likely related to my setting in php.ini: “<?=” I’ve replaced all the instances with “<?php echo “

I’m now trying to figure out why my sql files are empty…

btw. the changes I’m proposing should also work on servers who have the shortening turned on. I see you used a mix between the shortening and long form in your code.

maarten,

I just checked in 1.8.1 … the only change is removing all PHP shorthand …

Thanks for the catch,

Paul

I’m working out some debugging feedback, but if you have Firefox & Firebug you can look at AJAX responses there & search for pre tags in the response to see existing feedback …
