    I get the following error when trying to enable the plugin.

    The plugin could not be activated because it caused an unavoidable error.

    Warning: require_once(/home/example/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wpforo/wpf-includes/functions.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/example/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wpforo/wpforo.php on line 175

    Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required ‘/home/example/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wpforo/wpf-includes/functions.php’ (include_path=’.:/opt/alt/php73/usr/share/pear’) in /home/example/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wpforo/wpforo.php on line 175

    Hi @getsherlock,
    It says that some files of wpForo plugin don’t exist. It seems the disk space is full or, the installation and downloading of plugin installation pack was not completed . Please deactivate, and delete wpForo plugin. Then search and install it again. Make sure your server disk space is not full.

    Also, please check the file system, make sure this file exists, check the permission of this file and the size. The size should not be 0, and the pemission should be 644:
    wp-content/plugins/wpforo/wpf-includes/functions.php

    My server disk space is not full. I deleted the plugin and installed it again and the result did not change.
    Also, the file’s size and permissions seem correct.
    Thanks for the quick response

    Then the file is somehow blocked from some solution. Please contact to the hosting service and ask them why the file exists but the system can’t find it. Why PHP returns this error:

    Failed opening required ‘/home/example/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wpforo/wpf-includes/functions.php
    This error says that your server can’t find and open that file.

    Also, try to disable all security plugins and solutions. They may block the file by mistake.
