 * I was uploading the RSS Feed plug in to my site then after I installed it this
   came out:
 * Warning: include_once(/mnt/local/home/maryjanecabrera/maryjanecabrera.com/wp-
   content/plugins/__MACOSX/) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: Success
   in /mnt/local/home/maryjanecabrera/maryjanecabrera.com/wp-settings.php on line
   473
 * Warning: include_once() [function.include]: Failed opening ‘/mnt/local/home/maryjanecabrera/
   maryjanecabrera.com/wp-content/plugins/__MACOSX/’ for inclusion (include_path
   =’.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /mnt/local/home/maryjanecabrera/
   maryjanecabrera.com/wp-settings.php on line 473
 * I really don’t know what happened guys but this came out right after I installed
   the RSS Feed plug in and it’s there on my site until now!! I have uninstalled
   and deleted the plug in already but the bug is still there (Although I’m not 
   even sure if it’s a bug or something). I need help with this! I am not good in
   programming and I know only basic html so I don’t have any idea how to fix this.
   Someone please help!
 * Thanks in advance!

 * this isnt a plugin failure — this isnt uploaded correctly.
 * maryjanecabrera.com/wp-content/plugins/__MACOSX
 * delete that __MACOSX direcotory and upload the OTHER directory and its files,
   that is in the zip.
 * this one: feedburner_feedsmith_plugin_2.3
 * it has 2 files in it,

 * Hi,
 * I just started to admin a site that is showing the:
 * The plugin __MACOSX/ has been deactivated due to an error: Plugin file does not
   exist.
 * …error, but I cannot find out what is causing it. A previous admin may have had
   something installed that I am not aware of. It doesn’t seem like there is currently
   a plug-in associated with this directory. I have completely removed the _MACOSX
   directory from the plug-ins folder, but the error persists.
 * It would seem that since Google’s acquisition of Feedburner, the aforementioned
   plugin is not available. I was going to see if installing it and then disabling
   it would fix the problem.
 * Any ideas? Thanks!
