 * Hi, I’m hoping to find a resolution to this problem. My WP site was working fine.
   Earlier when installing some plugins I used to get the “Plugin generated 2290
   characters…” message, but everything was fine.
 * After installing profile pic plugin I started getting these errors and now these
   errors crop up everywhere.
 * Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started
   at /public_html/wp-config.php:1) in /public_html/wp-login.php on line 337
 * Can someone please advise?
 * I use notepad++ and I looked into wp-config and pluggable.php but there are no
   whitespaces. The DB is set to utf8 encoding.

 * UPDATE:
 * Edited the default wp-config-sample with my db details and renamed to wp-config
   and it works fine.
