# Error Activating Plugins

 * I recently installed WP 2.0.3. I have 2 copies running, one on a local machine,
   and one in a hosted environment. Today, all of my plugins started showing as 
   deactivated, and I receive the following when attempting to activate any plugin(
   such as Hello Dolly):
 * `
    Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument
   in pathtomyrootwp-adminplugins.php on line 100
 * The error appears directly above the plugin summary table, and appears once for
   every installed plugin.
 * I have deleted every file in the hosted environment and re-uploaded from a fresh
   copy of thw WP 2.0.3 zip and the error is still present.
 * I have also spent, literally, hours trying to trouble-shoot the issue myself 
   by looking through the forums here and any information I could find through google.
 * I would appreciate any help.
 * Environmenr: windows, mysql 5.0.19-nt, PHP 5.1.1

 * Yes. Brinkster. Should I be ashamed? 😉
 * Oh, and I meant to add that the local copy is still working beautifully.

 * Apparently Brinkster updated their MySQL server and it breaks something. Check
   their site/tech-support?
