That’s cool, since I already have a cure. :). demetris is right to say that it is due to some server setups. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WordPress 2.8 Plugin Update Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/) * [uthfull](https://wordpress.org/support/users/uthfull/) * (@uthfull) * [17 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/page/2/#post-1101510) * [@ryan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ryan/) : Both blogs are hosted on the same host and the same server but exhibit opposite behaviour with regard to this bug. * [@demetris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/demetris/) : Alright. Even though they’re both on the same server, I’ll let the other installation be the way it is till it starts going crazy on me(if ever). * Thank you once again, both of you. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WordPress 2.8 Plugin Update Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/) * [uthfull](https://wordpress.org/support/users/uthfull/) * (@uthfull) * [17 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/page/2/#post-1101503) * Brilliant! Thank you so much Ryan. I overwrote http.php and the plugin installs seem to function correctly now. * Hope you don’t mind if I ask a dumb question. Should I replace http.php on another WP 2.8 blog installation that is not showing the bug just as a precaution or is it really not required? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WordPress 2.8 Plugin Update Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/) * [uthfull](https://wordpress.org/support/users/uthfull/) * (@uthfull) * [17 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/#post-1101485) * I’ll tweet about this. Lets see if I can draw some attention. * Another thing I’ve noticed, if you download the plugin ZIP to your PC and then upload it using the upload plugin feature in the dashboard, it installs correctly without any error whatsoever. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WordPress 2.8 Plugin Update Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/) * [uthfull](https://wordpress.org/support/users/uthfull/) * (@uthfull) * [17 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/#post-1101478) * Weird bug it is. Like I pointed out after further diagnosis that it is infact not related to any of the plugins. While everything works flawlessly on another blog, this blog gives the error when trying to install plugins and upgrading them. Themes work perfectly while upgrading and installing. 2.7 used to work perfectly. Anyone know how to file an official bug report regarding this? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WordPress 2.8 Plugin Update Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/) * [uthfull](https://wordpress.org/support/users/uthfull/) * (@uthfull) * [17 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/#post-1101394) * WP Greet Box is not causing the error. I apologize for the confusion due to my previous statement. I tried installing a plugin through the plugin browser and I was returned with this error: * ``` Downloading install package from http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/yet-another-related-posts-plugin.3.0.5.zip. Unpacking the package. Incompatible archive PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Invalid archive structure ``` * and this is when WP Greet Box is disabled as well. I do not think this is a server issue because another blog is installed on the very same server and gives no such errors. * Another interesting thing that I’ve noted is that no errors I returned while trying to upgrade a theme or install a new theme via the theme browser. It only happens with the plugins. And this time, even disabling the plugins has not helped. Any help would be appreciated. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WordPress 2.8 Plugin Update Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/) * [uthfull](https://wordpress.org/support/users/uthfull/) * (@uthfull) * [17 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/#post-1101351) * Alright arzlonga, I think I’ve found the cure. Do you by any chance have the WP Greet Box plugin running on your blog? If you have the “WP Greet Box” plugin running, disable it and then try to upgrade your plugins. I think it somehow messes up with the system. I’m not 100% certain though. * **UPDATE:** To test out what I had pointed, I specifically installed WP Greet Box on a WP 2.8 blog that did not have it previously. I then tried to upgrade the plugins. It went and finished the operation smoothly. No problems with WP Greet Box. But what I do know is that the error we get is resolved for me by either disabling all the plugins or the greet box plugin and then upgrading the plugins that I want to. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WordPress 2.8 Plugin Update Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/) * [uthfull](https://wordpress.org/support/users/uthfull/) * (@uthfull) * [17 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-28-plugin-update-problem/#post-1101349) * I’m having exactly the same problem with my blog. I can’t figure out how to upgrade the plugins as I keep getting this error. * ``` Downloading update from http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/adminimize.zip. Unpacking the update.

And if you could, please add some optional warning message or implement it as an option with a checkbox in the settings so that people don’t accidently empty their tables. I was too lazy to figure that out when I whipped up my version of Statpress. * Thanks for taking the pains to keep the plugin alive. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WordPress Stats Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-stats-problem-1/) * [uthfull](https://wordpress.org/support/users/uthfull/) * (@uthfull) * [18 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-stats-problem-1/#post-742216) * I’m encoutering the same problem since the 16th of April. I upgraded to WP 2.5 and installed a plugin called wassup. after that, I installed another plugin for google analytics. The next day I noticed the WP-Stats showing nothing whereas the other two plugins showed me details of the traffic to my website. I reinstalled the plugin but it fails to work.
