4.0.1 : syntax error admin/summary.php

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[' in /data/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-fail2ban/admin/summary.php on line 59

    Upon upgrading to 4.0.1 all pages on the site became blank. I enabled DEBUG in the config and found wp-fail2ban was the cause. I deleted the plugin from the filesystem and my sites came back up. I then attempted to re-install through the web UI. Upon attempting Network Activate, WP won’t activate and reports the error above.

    I’m unsure if that bug in summary.php is what caused all pages to stop working (seems unlikely since it’s just an admin page)

    Once the summary page bug is fixed I’ll see if I can reproduce the bug that causes all WP pages to go blank

    The curse of PHP 5.3 strikes again…. That should be fixed now in 4.0.2.

    That file is only loaded when you’re looking at the admin area – I can’t see how it would break anything else.

    4.0.2 fixed this bug. I did not encounter the site-wide issue I was seeing before either so that was either also fixed, or there was some other issue going on.

    Thanks!
