Hi

Whenever I click on “Delete cache” in the WP-Admin menu, I get a white screen and the following error logged. When I go to WP-Admin > Settings > WP Super Cache > Contents > Delete Cache it works fine. There are no warnings on the WP-Cache page, and the plugin works fine otherwise.
```
 Got error 'PHP message: PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function get_supercache_dir() in /var/www/vhosts/website.com/website/wp-content/plugins/wp-super-cache/wp-cache.php on line 423
```
Any ideas?

I think I’m getting somewhere. Could it have something to do with the face that the WPCACHEHOME is actually set in an include of wp-config.php. So I am not setting WPCACHEHOME in wp-config.php, but in wp-config.inc.php.

My wp-config.php
```
<?php
/**
 * The base configurations of the WordPress.
 *
 * This file has the following configurations: MySQL settings, Table Prefix,
 * Secret Keys, and ABSPATH. You can find more information by visiting
 * {@link http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Editing_wp-config.php Editing wp-config.php}
 * Codex page. You can get the MySQL settings from your web host.
 *
 * This file is used by the wp-config.php creation script during the
 * installation. You don't have to use the web site, you can just copy this file
 * to "wp-config.php" and fill in the values.
 *
 * @package WordPress
 */

require_once(dirname(dirname(__FILE__)).'/config/wp-config.inc.php');

/* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

/** Absolute path to the WordPress directory. */
if ( !defined('ABSPATH') )
        define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/');

/** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php');
```

I think this seems indeed to be the cause. I have now removed the line from wp-config.inc.php that defined WPCACHEHOME, and let the plug-in write the setting itself into wp-config.php.

I had the same issue, same error message. Found this in my wp-config:
define('WP_CACHE', false);

Re-enabling caching here solved the problem:
define('WP_CACHE', true);

With this setting emptying the cache does not cause errors. Yay!

Fo some reason the define(‘WP_CACHE’, true); gets deleted from the config.php file
