 * I tested the plugin for PHP 7.0.15 and haven’t encountered any errors/warnings.
   Also tested with Apache FastCGI, even if this has no influence whatsoever on 
   the plugin execution.
 * I’d appreciate you helping me find the error, so I can fix it and spare future
   users from the frustration you had.
 * “FastCGI header error” occurs whenever there is a PHP error or warning. Could
   you please check in the /wp-content/debug.log file what was exactly the error
   you were getting?

 * Instead of **Insert Headers and Footers** plugin, before we were using Simple
   Custom CSS and JS current version (2.10) and was doing us the issue **Failed 
   to read FastCGI header error**.
 * We fixed the issue by disabling Simple Custom CSS and JS plugin.
 * Hope it helps.

 * You need to increase the memory limit. Right now you have 40M memory limit, when
   even 64M is small for WordPress (128M is recommended). On top of that you are
   running Opcache (Opcache speeds up your scripts by storing the compiled scripts
   in the memory).
 * When you disabled the Simple Custom CSS and JS plugin, you simply released some
   memory.
 * I assumed you read the [ServerPilot article](https://serverpilot.io/community/articles/error-failed-to-read-fastcgi-header.html)
   related to the “Failed to read FastCGI header” error. Please read the last part
   entitled “Running Out of Memory”. You can test my assumption by checking out 
   your /var/log/syslog file.

 * I checked /var/log/syslog* files and I have no errors related to memory.
 * I also have other sites, with traffic and many plugins, that are using 40M memory
   with no issues.
 * If your plugin requires more memory to be used, say it into documentation or 
   inside wordpress dashboard may showing an alert during activation/installation.
 * Regarding “On top of that you are running Opcache (Opcache speeds up your scripts
   by storing the compiled scripts in the memory).
    When you disabled the Simple
   Custom CSS and JS plugin, you simply released some memory.”
 * I restarted many times apache and php realising memory and error was there until
   I deactivated your plugin.
