Title: pluggable.php error Last modified: August 30, 2016 --- # pluggable.php error * [aapril3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aapril3/) * (@aapril3) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pluggablephp-error-8/) * The site appears fine to the public, but I cannot access the site to make changes. I get the error: * Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/diamondgirl62/public_html/wp-includes/bookmark-template.php:1) in /home/ diamondgirl62/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 1121 Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * [Robby Suavé](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robbysuave/) * (@robbysuave) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pluggablephp-error-8/#post-6727418) * I’m getting a very similar error, and it seems to have popped up out of nowhere. I haven’t made any updates since the last time I was in the Admin CP. * Thread Starter [aapril3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aapril3/) * (@aapril3) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pluggablephp-error-8/#post-6727420) * Similar – the last time I was in the CP, about a week ago, I browsed other themes, but didn’t execute a change. But now I am essentially locked out, because I every time I go to /wp-admin I get this error message instead of access to my site. * [Robby Suavé](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robbysuave/) * (@robbysuave) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pluggablephp-error-8/#post-6727440) * I’m still not having any luck. Are you? By the way, who is your host? I wonder if this isn’t an issue caused by the host. * Thread Starter [aapril3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aapril3/) * (@aapril3) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pluggablephp-error-8/#post-6727457) * Mine is hosted by GoDaddy. I called them and they tried. I find that GoDaddy has excellent telephone support, but they couldn’t help with this one becasue it requires fixing code and the error message is locking us out. I am amazed that WordPress doesn’t offer ANY telephone support. They recommended using a search engine using the error message. This result was interesting [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-cannot-modify-header-information-117?replies=8](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-cannot-modify-header-information-117?replies=8) but I don’t have FTP access tot he site set up, and I don’t have any backup files to work from. It seems to have something to do with a stray space following a php tag in the code. * [Robby Suavé](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robbysuave/) * (@robbysuave) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pluggablephp-error-8/#post-6727486) * That’s what I’ve been reading too, but that doesn’t seem to be helping my case any. I think WordPress offers livechat, which is almost as good as telephone support. * Thread Starter [aapril3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aapril3/) * (@aapril3) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pluggablephp-error-8/#post-6727487) * A web-savvy friend told me to call my hosting platform (GoDaddy, which has great support) and ask them to reset my pages to a date before the error message started. I am going to try that. Let me know if you have any success with the livechat. * [mrtom414](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mrtom414/) * (@mrtom414) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pluggablephp-error-8/#post-6727488) * I use to see that error message all the time when I created php sessions. But, wordpress doesn’t use sessions. * I think the best solution would be to ftp into your site and remove all your from the plugin folder and see if the site comes up. * If you have access to your cpane there should be an icon on it to create an ftp user. You can download an ftp client install it. * Cpanel usually has an icon that will automatically configure the ftp client for you. * Thread Starter [aapril3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aapril3/) * (@aapril3) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pluggablephp-error-8/#post-6727489) * I hear you, but this error message comes up as soon as I enter the /wp-admin URL, effectively blocking me from getting into the backend of the site in any way… so i can’t get to my Cpanel. * [mrtom414](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mrtom414/) * (@mrtom414) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pluggablephp-error-8/#post-6727490) * cpanel has nothing to do with wordpress totally different applications. You should be able to get to cpanel by typing your domain name followed by /cpanel. * wordpress can’t keep you from getting to your cpanel. * [Robby Suavé](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robbysuave/) * (@robbysuave) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pluggablephp-error-8/#post-6727491) * I think I fixed my problem. I did quite a few things, so I’m not sure exactly which thing did the trick (maybe it was a combination of things?), but one thing to try is to go into Dashboard > Updates and click the Re-install Now button.
