I have this issue as well. I’m on WordPress 3.8. It’s entirely possible that the plugin broke on 3.8.

I have the same issue. Didn’t realize the size until I saw this post and checked mine because I keep getting an unknown error when I try to import it into Ghost.
Hey people,
I’ve updated the plugin to the next version. Could you check if it’s still 0 bytes?
Hey javorszky,
Haven’t tried the previous version, but 0.4.1 has the same behavior on our WP 3.8.0: 0 bytes output. No error in the logs. Is there a way to debug this?
Hi Mil0dV,
Hm… how many posts do you have? How much memory does PHP have?
So, the problem in my scenario is that I use FTPS to install plugins and the group on the ghost
plugin directory (where the plugin appears to be attempting to write the file) is the FTPS user’s gid (dallas
, in my case). Changing the group to the appropriate group (www-data
in my case) allowed the plugin to write the file and therefore produce a wonderful JSON output.
Hi dallasgutauckis,
Good to know.
I wonder if it’s safe to assume that if the json is 0 bytes, then there’s a permissions issue. To recap for the people who arrive here again:
- Make sure that you have enough space on the disk.
- Make sure that the permissions are right (the owner / group of the plugin directory is the same as what the server is using. See guide here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions )
I’m marking this resolved.
Thanks for the eyes and the help!
