Got this error when I upgraded automatically from 2.7.1 to 2.8:
Warning: gzinflate() [function.gzinflate]: data error in /home/acctname/public_html/wp-includes/http.php on line 1787
I don't know what the effect is, everything seems to be running fine, but I got this error on all my WP blogs. Also, after the upgrade, WP didn't ask to upgrade the database....

I receive similar errors on all of the dashboard pages The blog itself looks fine:
Warning: gzinflate() [function.gzinflate]: data error in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\http.php on line 1787
Warning: gzuncompress() [function.gzuncompress]: data error in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\http.php on line 1792

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\http.php:1787) in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\functions.php on line 785I've tried deactivating and removing all plugins, and switching to the default theme, with no affect.

I wonder if the theme has something to do with this. I use WooThemes on all my blogs. Can't figure it out yet though...
Not exactly the same thing but look at https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/10104 and try this:
Download this and install it over wp-includes/http.php.
http://core.trac.wordpress.org/export/11450/trunk/wp-includes/http.php

OK! I am sorry to do this, but can someone please help me with my recent post about headers and editing!

I am getting the same error in my sidebar. I think it's due to the theme I'm using which has Twitter function.
Here's a screenshot:

I've tried replacing the original http.php with the mentioned http.php but it's still there.
Can someone suggest how I can fix this? I am not very familiar with the coding.

These error messages relate to some new functions for deflate and gzip transfer encodings. They appear to be indicating that the upgrade package has not been able to be correctly unzipped.
To recover from this, just temporarily deactivate your plugins, do a backup, and do a manual upgrade of 2.8. The manual upgrade will check to see if your database has already been upgraded and, if it hasn't been, it will take you to the database upgrade.
Don't ignore these errors because its highly likely that you have not got a complete install of 2.8 yet.
Hope this helps.

Elpie, thanks very much! Manual upgrading seems to work for me. No more of this error.

Just replacing the http.php in the /wp-includes dir like MichaelH suggested worked perfectly for me.
Give it a try before you do a full reinstall

I only receive the warnings from last.fm for WordPress plugin, so I've disabled it for the time being.
Replacing the http.php didn't make the errors go away for me.

I am having the same issue as paulbm-uk. That plugin is broken for me in two separate installs of 2.8
Posted 2 years ago #
The last.fm plugin is old and is clearly not compatible with WordPress 2.8. I suspect it just might be updated soon though as the developer's own site has that same error showing on it ;)
I'd recommend uninstalling it and waiting for an updated plugin.

I'm on it, but I have no clue about what can be happening...

I tried to perform an instant upgrade to WP 2.8 and my process page said "done" even though there was no indication that the different steps (downloading upgrade file etc) were being completed. I refreshed and nothing changed so I thought maybe my IE browser wasn't responding. I closed the tab and when I returned to the wp admin url, I received the following error instead of the sign in form:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method WordPress_Module::_weak_escape() in /home/majorla/public_html/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 487
I am unable to sign into my dashboard at all and my home page also shows this error.
My hosting control panel works as does the site's email. How do I restore the backup or otherwise obtain access to my dashboard?
I was unable to gain access through FileZilla as well. I get the following error through FileZilla
530 Login authentication failed
Thanks,
Laura

My hosting company moved a plugin and I was able to install my backfile files with Filezilla by using the control panel webaddress instead of my backoffice web address. aftward I was able to pull up my site and the backoffice login.. When I logged in, WP 2.8 was already running.
YAY!
Thanks,
Laura

I found this same error after doing a manual install.
Simply reuploaded the 'http.php' file - the same one that was in the 2.8 download and that fixed it.
Thanks @MichaelH for suggesting it - never would have guessed it was that easy.

I'm getting the same error, only my admin section. I did an upgrade automatically and manually, and after that didn't work, I deleted everything and did a fresh install, and I'm still getting the error message. No active plugins, using Default theme.
I wonder if it's XAMPP related, as I was able to upgrade three hosted WordPress blogs no problem. I noticed the second person who posted in this thread is also using XAMPP. Anyone else?
Editing out the offending line (#1787) seems to remove the errors and everything runs just fine. Not sure what the consequences are for getting rid of that line though.

Just tried a quick fix and it seemed to work for now:
Changed line 1787 from
$decompressed = gzinflate( $compressed );
to:
if (false !== $compressed) $decompressed = gzinflate( $compressed );
The idea being that the error said it was a data error, so that line must not like whatever is coming through in that $compressed variable.
This might be a better solution than just deleting. That way if some other functions need to use that $compressed variable, it should still work. Right?

I just checked my wordpress error_log file and see these:
[18-Jun-2009 14:09:22] PHP Warning: gzuncompress() [<a href='function.gzuncompress'>function.gzuncompress</a>]: data error in /home/alove4ho/public_html/wp-includes/http.php on line 1792

What to do to stop these errors? My blog site looks/acts fine for now.

One more strange thing. Even with all these fixes - I get this error everytime I first load the page. But if I refresh, it goes away.
Maybe all those fixes weren't doing anything, it was just the refresh. What does that mean?

I think we have useful informations about 2.8 update in this article:

It was an internal issue, but now the bug is fixed, see the last.fm plugin page: http://rick.jinlabs.com/code/lastfm
RickGC, Can you explain what we need to do? I am not a programmer. Do I copy your entire file and paste into mine? Do I need to delete anything in mine? Thanks!

wildbug, if you can't wait for the next WP version just overwrite your http.inc file (in wp-includes) with my file (or just copy&paste the entire file, as you said)
Cheers

Did upgrading to the newest (beta) version 2.8.1 fix this problem?
Posted 2 years ago #
@kaiserthegreat...
I am using XAMPP as a local server with WordPress 2.8.
Everything was fine for a couple of days and then I got the line 1787 error messages when going into the dashboard - the site looked fine but the dashboard had all the error messages at the top and the various sections were all over the place. looked as though the CSS positioning had been turned off!
I tried several of the suggestions, which have been posted but none worked.
Finally tried your suggestion of deleting line 1787... last resort... and it worked.
Dashboard looks fine now.
Anybody solved it yet?
Is there a bug in 2.8 or is it the combination of XAMPP and WordPress?
Thanks RickGC but I'm still confused. When I said copy and paste your file, I was referring to your "10163.diff" file that was on your help ticket. But you seem to be implying that I take the http.rar file that has since been uploaded to that linked page and overwrite the http.inc file. Only problem is I can't find an http.inc file. I only see an http.php file! Can you walk me through it from a complete novice's point of view? Sorry to be so clueless! ;-)

Sorry, wildbug, I mean http.php
Just overwrite the original file with the one in my plugin page...
Thanks RickGC
So are you saying to overwrite the http.php file with your http.rar file? Because I tried that and it messed everything up. (It doesn't make sense to me why I would replace a file that reads like normal code with one that is all symbols...?)
Since I am such a newbie at this, it'd be helpful if you could use specific names when referring to files so I know I'm not messing up. For example: "Replace http.php file with http.rar file" Instead of overwrite original with the one on my page...because there are several attachments and being a non-programmer none of it makes sense to me.
Anyway, it didn't work well for me. If you or anyone else has any other suggestions, please let me know. Thanks!
I posted the fix on my site. Right-click on the link below and save, change the name to http.php, and overwrite the current one in your wp-includes folder. You should only need this if you're running 2.8. I believe this fix will be included in 2.8.1.
