I've been trying to uninstall a magento plugin I've recently installed to reinstall it using Magento Connect. The log said that the plugin uninstalled successfully and if I go to the admin panel, the plugin's no longer there but when I went back to Magento Connect, the plugin is still listed there so I can't reinstall. Why is this happening?
Based on the answers, what I've tried so far are:
Clear cache through Admin Panel
Removed wordpress entry in core_resource
I've made sure wordpress xml in etc/modules is removed
I've made sure Fishpig folder in app/code/community is removed
Cleared cache in var/cache
Cleared cache in downloader/cache
Checked if there's xml for wordpress in var/package (there was none)
Reindexed magento
And none of this worked. The wordpress extension was still listed as installed in Magento Connect. I've been trying to uninstall repeatedly but it just won't go away even though the log said that the uninstall process completed. I've also tried reinstalling and upgrading. No success.
to remove the extension:
remove all the modules files, includeing the file which enables the module:
app/etc/modules/COMPANY_MODULE.xml
also make sure the entry is gone from the database by removing the correct entry in table:
core_resource
then refresh the magento cache
It should then disappear from connect.
Which module have you installed? Can you give me name so I can give you solution if possible for me. If module add new own tables in db then dont delete any module file otherwise may be magento crash. Its better way to uninstall from magento connect manages.
Clear the .cache folder in the downloader directory, in addition there is also another area where an xml can be present in var/package/
The package files are from magento connect so delete from here and have another check!
delete all files in var/cache/ and double check you are actually working in the right folder! if you have another caching system then clear it.
To delete the extension from Magento Connect (I believe you have already uninstalled it from Magento) you will need to delete the file var/package/Fishpig_Wordpress_Integration_{{version}}.xml
Thank you very much for all your help and time. I really appreciate it. I've managed to solve the problem. It's apparently a problem with permissions. I didn't realize soon enough that the permission for all folders had to be 777. I had most folders set to 777 except for 2 files on my etc folder (local and locals.xml) because of security issues. But after getting a go signal changing said permissions, I managed to uninstall the plugin and reinstall it. Now the Wordpress is fully integrated in the website with no problems and I've also returned the permissions for local and locals.xml back to it's original. Thanks again a lot for all your time.

My hoster forced me to upgrade my Wordpress site because it was fairly old. I decided to upgrade to PHP 8.1. It caused issues with the website, so I figured I'd rebuild the whole website since it's a simple website. I deleted all the existing files and uploaded the 5.8.2 WordPress install files. Then I changed all the permissions to 0755. I created a fresh database for the install.
At first, the setup would appear. I would go through the install, but when I clicked install after entering all the database info, I got "There has been a critical error on this website." I recreated the .htaccess file to the default and tried again. Now I get this error just hitting the domain, no more setup screens. The site does redirect to the /wp-admin/setup-config.php file. I don't have a wp-config.php file in the directory, just the sample one. I tried creating a wp-config.php with the correct info, but same error. I also tried adding the debug options, increasing PHP memory, etc. Same error. I don't get any error logs.
Does anyone now how to get an error log or can help with ideas on how to create a fresh WordPress site? I did change the PHP versions to older ones, but that didn't work either.
You need to take a backup of your file ,then fallow the fallowing instruction.
Rename your plugin one by one and refresh the website.
this issue due to the unsupported plugin ,that is installed in your wordpress website.
1- Make a backup copy of the files and from the old database
2- After that, download these files on your PC
3- Install WordPress again
4- Replace the wp-content file with the old one
5- Clean the new database and import the old database through phpMyAdmin
I solved that problem installing an older version of Xampp, with previous version of php, MySQL and Apache. I give up version 8.1.1
XAMPP 7.4.27 / PHP 7.4.27
https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html
There was something wrong on the hosting side. The source of the issue was indeed that WordPress could not write to the config file. Even the hoster was unable to delete the files. We ended up deleting the entire root directory and starting from scratch. Now it's all good.
The lesson learned is that one of the sources of the "There has been a critical error on this website." error is that WordPress is unable to write/edit files. It's also why it could not write an error log. WordPress could have been more descriptive here.
I installed the plugin W3 total cache but It crashed my website, so I had to delete it. The problem is that my site is still running. But I think I didn't delet it properly. I just renamed the folder of the plugin in the wp-content.
Another thing I did, I deleted the three files from the ftp : db.php, advanced-cache.php and object-cache.php
I didn't follow the instruction for delete the plugin and I didn't unchecked all options, disable and delete the plugin.
Is there any consequences and can I correct that?
Please help!
Usually renaming the folder does deactivate plugins as the folder is no longer detected. Some plugins however create files and database tables which will remain after this so you should always follow the recommended deactivation/uninstallation suggested by the developer. You can find a reply from the developer to a question similar to yours here - https://wordpress.org/support/topic/impossible-to-uninstall-completely/
I have a website that I designed and did all the frontend dev work. I then handed all my files over to my Wordpress developer. They built out the site and gave me access to the files on Gitlab. What I want to do is set up a local copy of the repo on my Mac (which I have done ), branch it and make some CSS changes to the site. Commit those changes and let the developer merge what I have done. I'm new to WP, so I haven't done much in the way of setting up a site. I've watched a couple of videos, but they all seem to be for someone who needs to download and install a fresh install of WP. I don't think this is what I want to do. I downloaded and installed MAMP, and set up localhost, tried to point it to my local repo on my Mac, but that's not working. I just can't find anything to point me in the right direction. Hoping someone here has some advice. Thanks in advance!
If I understand correctly, you've already cloned the site to your local and you've made a database in MAMP? And you've named them the same.
From there you should be able to pull up localhost:8888/databaseName and proceed with the WordPress install that you cloned. If this isn't working check to make sure that you cloned the project into the same directory that you specified when you set up MAMP. Still not working, check to see if you also cloned the wp-config.php file. Then go to the wp-config.php file and make sure the database specified is the correct database name and that username and password are "root". Still no? Make sure the table prefixes in the database are the same.
For background - usually when you install a fresh WordPress, the first screen you come to has you set up all this info. And, if you are cloning a project, usually the config file is in .gitignore since it is specific to where you are using it. 😀
I can't figure out why my wp site is stuck in maintenance mode. I made no update and there's no .maintenance file. I can't even access to admin.
Has anyone encountered similar issue?
Try renaming the plugins/ folder to _plugins/ and see if you can access your website, if you can, rename the plugins folder to plugins/. Try disabling every plugin and re-enabling the plugin until your site breaks again to find the culprit.
If you can't access your website after renaming the plugins folder, disable your theme (by renaming the folder).
These are the common troubleshooting steps, if you provide more details, I will be able to help you more :/
Finally got it, it was a domain redirection error. The url pointed to a folder with a default index.html.
If anyone is still having this problem in 2017, I fixed it by going to my /wp-content/endurance-page-cache and deleting two files called _index.html and a_index.html (to be safe, I would download these first so that if this ISN'T the issue you can still recover them). This is what my domain was redirecting to.
Before I figured it out, I deactivated the WP Maintenance Mode plugin, looked through the directory for a .maintenance file (which I didn't find even after showing hidden files), and completely deleted the plugin. So hopefully if anyone is having this issue, this will work for you!
I'm trying to install WordPress for local use with XAMPP. I started off by installing and unzipping both the XAMPP and WordPress folders. I placed the XAMPP folder in my C:/ drive and my WordPress folder within the "htdocs" folder. After that, I made a new "config" file for my local server based on the "config-sample" file.
Here's where things get tricky: when I try to use the "install.php" file, I am brought to a screen that asks for credentials. I give it some generic credentials and then I submit it in order to install WordPress. However, when I submit the form, the loaded page is completely blank and the URL appears as "localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php?step=2".
When I go into the database, it shows me that WordPress created all of the necessary tables, but didn't create any log-in credentials for me. I was doing some research and there were a couple pages that mentioned the need for increased PHP RAM, but I'm unsure of how to increase the RAM for local use or if it's even a problem. If anyone had an error like this happen to them, I would really appreciate some feedback as to what could be causing this problem.
I had the same exact problem, with an almost blank screen on step-2 passage.
Adding in wp-config.php these lines solved everything:
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '128M');
set_time_limit(60);
I've installed Wordpress 4.0 from a zip file on XAMPP 1.8.3 on my Win7-32bit PC.
Setting up the DB and all, I got the same "blank screen" at the step 2.
So, I went in to phpMyAdmin, and edited the "wp_users" table on my entry. I modified the user_login and the user_password (using an MD5 converter). Saved the entry and got into the localhost url for wordpress. Got into the log in, and everything seems to be working without any issues.
As a note: I installed a fresh/clean install so there were no custom themes nor plugins.
Hope that helps.
