 * Been using Caldera Forms on this site right now and it’s been working for months,
   but now it’s throwing an error which is.
 * >  Fatal error: Class ‘calderawp\calderaforms\pro\settings\container’ not found
   > in /home/content/42/7612342/html/wp-content/plugins/caldera-forms/includes/
   > cf-pro-client/classes/settings/active.php on line 21
 * That line of code is:
    `Fatal error: Class 'calderawp\calderaforms\pro\settings\
   container' not found in /home/content/42/7612342/html/wp-content/plugins/caldera-
   forms/includes/cf-pro-client/classes/settings/active.php on line 21`
 * Thing is I’m not using CF Pro. Just the regular version. So I have no idea why
   this is referring to the Pro version.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ffatal-error-in-active-php%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * [@databell96](https://wordpress.org/support/users/databell96/) Thanks for using
   Caldera Forms. I’m sorry you’re having this issue.
 * Can I ask what version of PHP and WordPress you are using? That would be very
   helpful for me so I can reproduce this here and see how to fix.

 * It’s PHP v5.6.27.
 * I did delete the current Caldera folder and then downloaded a new version from
   the repository and uploaded that. Seems to have worked.

 * Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, I don’t like hearing about this sort
   of error, but if I can figure out why it’s happening we can fix it.
 * I tested at 5.6.20 – I couldn’t get Docker to get any more specific. It worked
   fine. I wonder if you just had a bad download. Data transfers go bad, and WordPress
   doesn’t check the file contents of a plugin update.
 * I’ll get a server with 5.6.27 tomorrow and report back.
