When not having a domein name I use the 100.100.100.100/~testuser option, which according to him is not the right solution. * So, I have to set it up differently, For now I just commented out line 11 at em-notices.php which also does the trick… * Plugin Author [Marcus (aka @msykes)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/netweblogic/) * (@netweblogic) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-events-manager-installation-error/page/2/#post-2142035) * you might have issues with regards to success/error messages not showing by doing that, but aside from that the plugin should work. * [redturbo917](https://wordpress.org/support/users/redturbo917/) * (@redturbo917) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-events-manager-installation-error/page/2/#post-2142050) * Greetings all. I am having similar problems with Events Manageron a godaddy server. * Frankie Jarrett? Did you ever sort out your errors with Godaddy? they moved our site to a new server and they changed our permissions and we lost use of event manager. * I will post any updates here for us. * Cheers! * Mike * Plugin Author [Marcus (aka @msykes)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/netweblogic/) * (@netweblogic) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-events-manager-installation-error/page/2/#post-2142052) * If they changed permissions on your server, you should try to get them to set them correctly. * [greigner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/greigner/) * (@greigner) * [14 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-events-manager-installation-error/page/2/#post-2142062) * I ran into this issue when moving a WordPress site from one server to another. * – I was using GoDaddy shared hosting – I was using Events Manager plug-in successfully before the move – The day the move to a new server was completed, I received the errors mentioned above; in addition, all my sites pages were missing, and I couldn’t even log in to the back-end to make changes (using FireFox) * *****Resolution (i.e. for my specific situation) ***** * – To immediately solve the problem from a visual standpoint, log in to your WordPress site using Chrome or another browser (you’ll have to test). DEACTIVATE the Events Manager plug-in. Once that is done, the site should return to it’s normal self( visually) – Via an FTP client, check the root of your hosting for a folder called‘ tmp’. If it is missing, create it. If it is there, open all permissions for that folder. – If the above fails to work, call your hosting company. Provide them a link to this forum, and if necessary, reactivate the plug-in so they can see the error message; they can check additional permissions and folders if needed and help get you back in action. * Hope that helps! * Plugin Author [Marcus (aka @msykes)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/netweblogic/) * (@netweblogic) * [14 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-events-manager-installation-error/page/2/#post-2142063) * thanks for sharing your solution * [greigner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/greigner/) * (@greigner) * [14 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-events-manager-installation-error/page/2/#post-2142065) * My pleasure. * [Sajid Javed](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sjaved/) * (@sjaved) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-events-manager-installation-error/page/2/#post-2142070) * If you put error_reporting(0); in wp-config file it will permanently off the error notices throughout the sit. If you are developer this is not good. * You can simply edit the ’em-notices.php’ file and put erro_reporting(0); on very top of the file. * Thanks. * [Ben](https://wordpress.org/support/users/benleow/) * (@benleow) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-events-manager-installation-error/page/2/#post-2142074) * create an empty php.ini file and put in this line… * safe_mode = Off * upload it to your public_html folder. after that, add this line in your .htaccess file… * suPHP_ConfigPath /PATH/TO/public_html * of course edit the above line to match your path to your public_html folder. * It works for me. * [leivreed](https://wordpress.org/support/users/leivreed/) * (@leivreed) * [14 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-events-manager-installation-error/page/2/#post-2142080) * Thanks so much for this guys!
