Well, I grew bored and decided if I could test to within my ability whether the above was true. So I downloaded xampp and and installed the “whole enchilada” as it were, xampp for windows at least does use php 5 right of the bat. Anyway long story short everything works flawlessly as I can tell. I don’t see any of these problems on the server I just installed. Running XP pro and the recent stable version of xampp. It should be said though that I have actually set up all three seperatly successfully and this was using an installer. I was actually surprised with the results this time though. It was about as painless as it could be. So yeah. This definatly is not gonna be a problem if your host is using php5.

As near as I can tell this is due to using an old version of php. I don’t think any of us are getting anywhere because everybody else is using a recent version and we apperently are SOL. Ah’well I already told my host.. Not gonna update php? Well then I’m leaving.

Anybody got any advice for php5, 1 gig space, 1 gig bandwidth a month, unlimited mysql db’s, and unlimited mail accts?

Well actually I could do without that many mail accts.

Is there any chance I could see what is supposed to be in that array? What should I be looking at? it would be nice to at least manually add the correct settings to the db so I could start using the plugins.

Actually spoke too soon. Errors disappear but when you click activate it shows the “activated” message but then it nothing happens. This is what shows up in the active_plugins table.

so somethings happening but not quite fixed. I hope that helps track down whatevers going on.

That worked perfect.

Error disappeared and I’m now able to activate plugins.

Thanks sooo much! That was quick!

I’m getting the same thing. Exactly the same thing. I’m still trying to peice together the solution.
