   Hi all,

   I've upgraded to 2.8.1 and I'm getting this error when trying to log in to admin:

   Fatal error: Call to undefined function: _deep_replace() in /home/www/XXXXXXXXXXXX/blog/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 884

   I've searched the forums and have deactivated all plugins and removed blank characters and spaces at the beginning and end of my pluggable.php and wp-config.php files, but nothing has helped.

   Can anyone help me?

   Thanks in advance.

   by the way, line 884 in pluggable_php says:

   $location = _deep_replace($strip, $location);

   thanks!

   Getting the same error on a clean install of 2.8.1. I've tried replacing "_deep_replace..." with "deep_replace..." but that does not help. Is it possible our hosts are using an outdated version of PHP?

   I had another look. There is, in fact, no _deep_replace() function inside pluggable.php. I'll start trolling through some other likely suspects.

   i've given up and downgraded to 2.7. i think i'll wait until there's a better version released...

   Same issue with a clean install of 2.8.1 beta 1 when visiting the install page for the first time.

   Fatal error: Call to undefined function _deep_replace()

   Also... no tables were created in the database before the fatal error if that gives a clue to the sequence.

   You didn't get a good install. Delete all the files and reupload them. Ideally, you should unzip the file on the server, rather than unzip on your computer and upload via ftp.

   hallsofmontezuma,
   did just that - same error on clean install, unzipped on the server...

    Commented Line 884 of pluggable.php - everything worked, tables created, installation hasslefree. No idea about the consequences, but will test and report...

    Try 2.8.1 Beta 2 to see if this makes a difference. There was a change to this after beta 1.

    When I upgraded I'm encounter an error
    Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/friendko/public_html/xxxxx/wp-content/themes/xxxx/functions.php:2) in /home/friendko/xxxxx/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 693

    Can anyone help me?

    Thanks in advance.
