• Hello,

    I am trying to install and activate some plugins on my new site: http://justice-liberty.com/wordpress/. But while trying activate some of them, I get messages like this:

    Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/j/u/s/justliberty/html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-ad-gallery/wp-ad-gallery.php:177) in /home/content/j/u/s/justliberty/html/wordpress/wp-includes/functions.php on line 862

    And it’s not activated.

    Can you explain this?

    Thanks,
    Mustafa

    Esmi,

    Thanks for your tips.

    I went into “wp-config.php” via FTP File Manager using Notepad, and saw that there was no ?> at the end of the text file. I put in ?> there, and checked that there was no space between < and ? in the <?php code at the beginning.

    I saved the file. But lo and behold, as I opened my blog site, there still was the warning:

    “Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/j/u/s/justliberty/html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-ad-gallery/wp-ad-gallery.php:177) in /home/content/j/u/s/justliberty/html/wordpress/wp-includes/functions.php on line 862”

    What could have gone wrong?

    Thanks a lot.

    Get rid of the closing ?> in wp-config.php. It’s been omitted deliberately. Now, as that Codex section explains, look at the error message:

    output started at /home/content/j/u/s/justliberty/html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-ad-gallery/wp-ad-gallery.php:177

    The problem is in the ad-gallery plugin,

    Esmi,

    I deleted the “?>” code that I had put in at the end of the “wp-config.php” file, having opened it with Notepad; and saved it. When I reopened the “wp-config.php” file, I saw it all garbled up as a full horizontal page, instead of the vertical list of codes. Can you tell what has happened, and how I can restore the old vertical sheet of codes?

    Also, how do I get to “home/content/j/u/s/justliberty/html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-ad-gallery/wp-ad-gallery.php,” and what do I do with line “177”?

    Again, many thanks for your help.
    Mustafa

    Try downloading another copy of wp-config.php. As to the plugin problem, FTP into your site (or use whatever file management application your host provides) & delete the wp-content/plugins/wp-ad-gallery folder.

    Esmi,
    I got busy with other things. I’m sorry but if you could send me the steps through which I can reinstall the wp-config.php file on my site http://justice-liberty.com/wordpress? Or do I need to reinstall the whole WordPress?
    Thanks a lot.
    Mustafa
