 * I’m having a minor issue finishing the install of WP Super Cache…0.9.1
 * When trying to access Plugins within admin backend I get a server 500 error and
   the line added to PHP error log states missing function admin_url on line 1395
   of wp_cache.php ??
 * WP Super cache tab is functional and displaying correctly.. I haven’t switched
   caching on as yet because of this problem…
 * Suggestions please…
 * Thanks
 * Status info…
    The basic install seems complete… Files in place. Rewrite rules
   added to ht.access ( I’m running Apache under Windows so .htaccess isn’t such
   a good name ) both in root and subdirectory as suggested.
 * Rest of site working properly as far as I can tell…

 * Do you get the 500 error if you comment out the following line in wp-cache.php?
   
   add_action( ‘admin_init’, ‘wp_cache_admin_notice’ );

 * No I don’t get the 500 error any more – the plugins tab appears correctly.
 * The same happens if I comment out the line with the admin_url call…
 * Perhaps a new file got added..( I had originally downloaded a slightly prior 
   version and accepted the auto prompt to upgrade when installing ) and the upgrade
   process fail to pick this up ?

 * How do I manually deactivate this plugin? Can I do this through the database.
   It’s messed up my admin and I can’t get at it. I don’t want it to work at this
   point just remove it. Can just delete it because it then takes the whole site
   offline.

 * The problem as I’ve stated is that I can’t access my admin due to conflicts with
   this plugin, so step one has to be done another way.
 * 1. Clear the cache in the backend page and then deactivate it on the plugins 
   page.

 * Obviously you’ll have to skip that step. You manually delete the cache in step
   5 anyway.

 * Jeremy,
 * I’ve been trying. Any step to manually do this make the main site stop working.
   I’m in bit of a bad spot right now. My site Bones Over Metal.com is in serious
   need of Caching. However, the plugin seems to only be half working. Last night
   I lost the entire site and by changing my .htaccess back, I got it back. However,
   now I don’t have admin.
 * I am would like to hire someone to finish this task. Are you interested or do
   you know someone who is? Thanks,
 * Mark Brent

 * I followed these steps listed above and it takes my site completely offline. 
   What gives?

 * hello all (especially donncha)
 * Although I finally managed to uninstall WP Super Cache, I really do appreciate
   the value this plug-in has and really want to get it up and running form my blog.
 * Does anybody know any more about _‘500 error and the line added to PHP error 
   log states missing function admin\_url on line 1395 of wp\_cache.php ??’_
 * I have decided to try install the plug in again (God help me!), and have looked
   at the Troubleshooting list in the FAQ’s for help.
 * I need to clarify/understand the following before I start again… can anybody 
   help:
 * 1. Is wp-content writable by the web server?
    (sorry, dont know what this means–
   could somebody explain?)
 * 8. Anything in your php error_log?
    (again, sorry, don’t know what this means–
   could somebody explain?)
 * 10. The plugin does not work very well when PHP’s safe mode is active. This must
   be disabled by your administrator.
    (again, sorry, don’t know what this means–
   could somebody explain?)
 * 14. Make sure cache/wpcachemutex.lock is writeable by the web server.
    (again,
   sorry, don’t know what this means – could somebody explain?)
 * Any other feedback, comments and ideas about ‘easy’ installation are welcome.
 * Brian
