# Problems with WP 3.2.1 (edit: SSH SFTP Updater plug-in)

 * Here’s my experience using the updater with 3.2.1
    – Installing a previously 
   uninstalled plug-in Mostly works, but “enable plug-in” link always reports there’s
   a “bad header”. Enabling plug-in from main plug-ins page works. – Updating an
   existing plug-in Fails fairly badly – old plug-in is replaced with an otherwise
   empty directory containing one empty directory. No update is performed, and plug-
   in ceases to be accessible from plug-ins page. Only way around it is to actively
   delete old plug-in and install from scratch.
 * EDIT: Just realized this system posts bug reports on a random forum! Sorry! This
   bug report refers to the behaviour of the sftp updater plug-in ([http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ssh-sftp-updater-support/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ssh-sftp-updater-support/))

 * I apologize for the tardiness of this response.
 * Anyway, I believe the latest SVN should fix this. Well, save for the “enable 
   plug-in” problem. The version of WordPress I’m using says “Activate” – not “enable
   plug-in”.
