# Error: failed to delete buffer. No buffer to delete

 * After installing properly version 1.8.1, I get every time:
 *     ```
       <br />
       <b>Notice</b>:  ob_clean(): failed to delete buffer. No buffer to delete in <b>/home/ncejraf/public_html/wp-content/plugins/constant-contact-widget/constantcontactwidget.php</b> on line <b>38</b><br />
       ```
   
 * When I googled, I found it might have something to do with blank spaces, so I
   checked that there were none. I also tried unchecking Ask for FN/LN. My site 
   is in maintenance mode, so also tried deactivating that temporarily. Widget is
   not rejecting my CC credentials, which have no spaces.
 * I note that: Line 38: ob_clean();
 * Anything else to try? Thank you.

 * Update: Just got an email from the Constant Contact account saying I had been
   added to the list, so at least one test did work, even though it through the 
   error. That seems to confirm problem is not credentials or list name.

 * Update 2: Could this be related to file permissions? I’m working on my client’s
   server, and my file permissions are slightly restricted.

 * Hi waytogo! Please update to version 1.8.2, that should eliminate the warning.

 * Yes, that fixed it! Thank you for quick response. FYI, it was not showing update
   available until I manually checked for it. Please close.
