 * Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
 * Warning: require_once(/home/xyz/public_html/wp-config.php) [function.require-
   once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/xyz/public_html/
   site/wp-content/plugins/redirect/redirect.php on line 16
 * Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/home/
   xyz/public_html/wp-config.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’)
   in /home/xyz/public_html/site/wp-content/plugins/redirect/redirect.php on line

 * 1. edit “redirect/redirect.php”.
    2. find this code “require_once($_SERVER[‘DOCUMENT_ROOT’].‘/
   wp-config.php’);”. 3. add double slash. “//require_once($_SERVER[‘DOCUMENT_ROOT’].‘/
   wp-config.php’);” 4. save and activate plugin.
 * at least it works for me. 🙂
