 * PMPro Update 1.8.6.6 is causing my site to crash
    learnbenglish.com I try to 
   update it with wordpress, but it just continues loading and does not do it. I
   believe it partially updates, but crashes my site. The host (ipage), suggests
   it is not a fault of their own. Could you please advise me how to use PMP, as
   it looks likely that this will stop me from using it, causing a lot of issues
   for me and my customers. Thanks in advance, Mark

 * Do you have a backup copy of your site.
    Try putting those files from the backup
   back into your current site using FTP.

 * I’m not sure why that file is missing for you. I would delete the /paid-memberships-
   pro/ directory using FTP (DON’T DELETE IT THROUGH THE PLUGINS PAGE IN THE DASHBOARD
   OR IT WILL DELETE YOUR DATA) and then reinstall.
 * You can try to fix that one file that is missing by creating …/paid-memberships-
   pro/includes/localization.php and pasting this content into it: [http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/paid-memberships-pro/trunk/includes/localization.php](http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/paid-memberships-pro/trunk/includes/localization.php)
 * But there might be other files missing if this one is.

 * if you still have trouble with this, try adding on some files at a time.
    I have
   found on 2 or 3 occasions with different hosting companies I get time out errors
   uploading a few files.. so if you are uploading a whole plugin then some files
   dont get uploaded because of the time out.
 * So adding only a few at a time helps this..
    I have seen this with both FTP of
   using the plugin Upload within the WP admin area.

   you went and what you did to get it sorted.. Others could benefit later..

 * I followed Jason’s advice exactly, uploading the plugin again to the site by 
   FTP. I also had a problem updating wordpress, so it could be related to that.
   So I also did the same thing via FTP for the latest version of wordpress.
    After
   these actions, it fixed the problem and kept my data in the PMP plugin.
 * However…
    After testing a purchase, it led to a message on the screen: “Internal
   Server Error: The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and
   was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator,
   and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done
   that may have caused the error. More information about this error may be available
   in the server error log.”
 * Otherwise new registrations are successful again, receiving the welcome email
   and logging in with the email/password combination.

 * This error can be caused by a variety of issues but is most likely caused by 
   a corrupt .htaccess file. Check to see if there is an .htaccess file in the directory
   where the error is being generated or any directory above in the tree. If so,
   temporarily rename the .htaccess file and refresh the page. If the error does
   not reappear, the .htaccess file is the issue. If the error still happens then
   rename the file and save permalinks again within WP.
    See if this helps.
 * If not do a search in Google for many reasons why this can happen.
 * If all is solved can you please mark this problem as [resolved]
 * Thanks

 * That error also shows up sometimes when you don’t have HTTPS/SSL setup but have
   PMPro configured to force SSL. FYI
