    RE: WordPress 3.5.1

    New WP Auctions Installation, I setup an auction, added widget to sidebar, but when clicking on the Auction Widget I get this error message:

    ERROR MESSAGE

    Warning: require_once(ABSPATHwp-settings.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/user2/public_html/wp-config.php on line 98

    Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘ABSPATHwp-settings.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/user2/public_html/wp-config.php on line 98

    ———-

    Here is wp-config.php on line 98.

    WP-CONFIG.PHP – LINE 98

    /** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
    require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-settings.php’);

    ———–

    I also want to upgrade to Pro, but I am skeptical if I cannot get the free version to work. Any ideas as to what I need to do to correct?

    Many thanks!

    I also use the Genesis Framework with Child Theme if this matters. All is up-to-date.

    Thanks.

    Hi there,

    Hmm, your error doesn’t seem to be coming directly from the plugin but from your WordPress files. The only time I’ve seen this sort of thing is when there’s a problem with the WordPress installation, but if this were the case, you’d see it consistently, not just with the popup, so don’t think this is the case.

    Looking at the popup code, we start with this line:


    if (!function_exists('get_option'))
    require_once('../../../wp-config.php');

    which pulls in the WordPress framework. We’ve never had a problem with this on other systems.

    Would suggest refreshing your WordPress installation to see if it resolves the issue. If not, I can pop in and have a look (email me on owen@cutajar.net) if you want me to take a closer look.

    Regards

    Owen
