  • Ah, I just figured out my issue. I forgot we’re running php-fpm on this system, and it hadn’t been restarted since the php-JSON package was installed. I restarted php-fpm and the automatic upgrade just ran without a hitch.

    Yes, running Apache 2.4.41.

    $ php -i | grep json
    /etc/php.d/20-json.ini,
    json
    json support => enabled
    json version => 1.5.0
    proto_binary_fetched_json => 0

    I’m running into the same problem, and I have full root access to my system. I have the php JSON package installed and yet I also get the error message “The update cannot be installed because WordPress 5.3.2 requires the JSON PHP extension.”…

    My installed PHP packages:

    $ rpm -qa | grep -i php
    php71u-mbstring-7.1.33-1.el6.ius.x86_64
    php71u-common-7.1.33-1.el6.ius.x86_64
    php71u-json-7.1.33-1.el6.ius.x86_64
    php71u-pdo-7.1.33-1.el6.ius.x86_64
    php71u-fpm-httpd-7.1.33-1.el6.ius.noarch
    php71u-gd-7.1.33-1.el6.ius.x86_64
    php71u-cli-7.1.33-1.el6.ius.x86_64
    php71u-mcrypt-7.1.33-1.el6.ius.x86_64
    php71u-xml-7.1.33-1.el6.ius.x86_64

    This got it working properly. Thanks for all the help, and for such a simple yet elegant theme!

    Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately it’s still not working. If you go to http://www.tailsofboston.com in an iPhone you’ll see the image at the top, a full screen filled in with the background color of the image, and then the text doesn’t start until below the bottom of the page.

    This seems to fix it when I view the site in a desktop browser, but it has the exact opposite behavior when viewed on my iPhone. The image area is so large that the text is pushed beyond the bottom of the screen…

    Thanks, this has helped quite a bit. There are a few more tweaks I’d like to make to the image though. When I added the image to the text widget as you described it caused the image to become left justified when viewed in a desktop browser. How can I get it right justified again?

    I’m also using an image that’s only 940×243 in size. I already set up a Custom CSS plugin to include the following CSS to display the image properly on the desktop:

    #fr-banner {
            min-height:283px;
            background-color:#FFFFFF;
            background-position: center;
            background-repeat: no-repeat;
            margin: 0px;
    }

    When I view the site on my iPhone now it shows the scaled image, but it also shows a lot of space below the image and above the page text. I also see the space if I view the site in Chrome on a desktop and resize the browser very narrowly. How can I get rid of that unwanted space?

    The site is http://www.tailsofboston.com

    Thanks again!

    Thanks for the suggestion, Tara, but that wasn’t it. I should have mentioned that I also have the wp-login.php file & wp-admin directory password protected via basic auth so those sorts of brute force attacks won’t even make it to WordPress.

    After a bit more troubleshooting I was finally able to pin this down to a corporate firewall that apparently has some content filtering enabled in it. I don’t know why, but its filters are apparently blocking something on this one particular site. The exact same laptop that was exhibiting the above problem while behind the firewall was able to log in without issue when I had it at home last night. And when it was back behind the firewall and failing to log into the WordPress site I set up an encrypted proxy through the firewall and was able to successfully connect that way.

    Stupid content filtering…
