 * My host has updated to PHP 5.6 for [http://www.aloeshop.dk](http://aloeshop.dk)
   
   Updraft now will not work – even after deleting and reinstalling with newest 
   versions.
 * It will also not make the dropbox verification.
 * this is the log:
    PHP event: code E_WARNING: require_once(/customers/9/9/9/aloeshop.
   dk/httpd.www/wp-content/plugins/updraftplus/backup.php): failed to open stream:
   No such file or directory (line 1266, wp-content/plugins/updraftplus/class-updraftplus.
   php) (feb 11 20:50:11)
 * in trying to do the dropbox authentication again, it just results in a blank 
   page.

 * Hi,
 * The message seems to indicate that you haven’t got UpdraftPlus fully installed–
   i.e. that the file wp-content/plugins/updraftplus/backup.php is missing. (Compare
   with a pristine download of [https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/updraftplus.1.9.51.zip](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/updraftplus.1.9.51.zip)–
   updraftplus/backup.php is in there). If you’ve already re-installed, then you
   need to look at the question of whether that file is really there – and what 
   its file permissions are.

 * P.S. If the file is there, and the file permissions are OK, then it’s more likely
   to be a dodgy PHP opcode-cacher, rather than PHP 5.6 itself. Have you got an 
   opcode cacher installed in the webserver’s PHP engine? (Zend, APC, eAccelerator,
   XCache, etc.).

 * Also… I just successfully ran a backup, and clicked through to Dropbox, on a 
   PHP 5.6 install.
 * Even though PHP 5.6 only has 0.5 % of WP users (which is why I’d not recommend
   moving anything important onto it…), that would still be likely to represent 
   around 6,000 UpdraftPlus users. Therefore, I’d expect to be seeing several reports
   if there was a problem that affected all PHP 5.6 users… this is the first one…

 * Thankyou David, I’ll try to reinstall with your zip.
    I didn’t really have a 
   say in PHP 5.6 beeing installed on my host server, so I’ll just have to Work 
   with that.
 * I’m not really sure which opcode cacher my host uses, but if the restallation
   fails Again, I’ll have a look into it.
