 * Just upgraded to the latest version of your plugin, but it triggered a fatal 
   error.
    Warning: include_once(inc/common.php): failed to open stream: No such
   file or directory
 * I had to delete the directory in cpanel to access the site again, as both admin
   area and frontend of site were affected showing the error.
 * I attempted to reinstall the plugin fresh from the repository, however it stated
   that the plugin could not be activated due to the same error;
 * Warning: include_once(inc/common.php): failed to open stream: No such file or
   directory
 * Did I do something wrong, or is this related to the new version? All other updates
   have been fine.
 * Thanks
    Ash

 * Hi Emre,
 * I have the same problem. I Deleted the old plugin and downloaded it again, with
   the same error…
 *     ```
       Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
       Warning: include_once(inc/common.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /.../html/wp-content/plugins/wp-fastest-cache/wpFastestCache.php on line 24 Warning: include_once(): Failed opening 'inc/common.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /.../html/wp-content/plugins/wp-fastest-cache/wpFastestCache.php on line 24 Fatal error: Class 'WpFastestCache' not found in /.../html/wp-content/plugins/wp-fastest-cache/wpFastestCache.php on line 26
