Title: Plugin has been initialising for a week Last modified: February 28, 2024 --- # Plugin has been initialising for a week * Resolved [wyclef](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wyclef/) * (@wyclef) * [2 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-has-been-initialising-for-a-week/) * Hi, this plugin was auto installed from WP File Monitor which had been working flawlessly for years and now it doesn’t seem to be working. I just have been getting the following for a week and it never seems to wrap up. * Initialising – You may navigate away from this page at anytime.

Just to confirm, when it was installed, did you walk through the wizard and a scan started? Can you share a bit more details on how the upgrade process was? * Looking forward to hearing from you. * Thread Starter [wyclef](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wyclef/) * (@wyclef) * [2 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-has-been-initialising-for-a-week/#post-17466387) * Hi, I was previously using the WP File Changes Monitor plugin which was set to auto update which is how I ended up with the Melepress plugin. I did go through the wizard again and a scan started but it never seems to finish and always says** Initialising – You may navigate away from this page at anytime.** * Possible plugins I use which could be interfering are WP Super Cache, WP Cerber, and IP Geo Block. I am not sure if you are familiar with any of these or how best to troubleshoot this. * [Danny Jones](https://wordpress.org/support/users/distinctivepixels/) * (@distinctivepixels) * [2 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-has-been-initialising-for-a-week/#post-17466484) * Hello [@wyclef](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wyclef/) * Thanks for the update. Id suggest to first enable WP_Debug (for details on this please see [https://developer.wordpress.org/advanced-administration/debug/debug-wordpress/](https://developer.wordpress.org/advanced-administration/debug/debug-wordpress/)) * Once done, head to File Monitoring > Settings and under Logging and debugging and Purge all data using the provided option – this will re-init a scan which should in turn feed information into the debug log we can use * You can then email us at [support@melapress.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-has-been-initialising-for-a-week/support@melapress.com?output_format=md), attaching the debug information etc and ill be more than happy to investigate further. * Look forward to hearing from you * Daniel – Developer @ Melapress * Thread Starter [wyclef](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wyclef/) * (@wyclef) * [2 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-has-been-initialising-for-a-week/#post-17472378) * Hello, in purging all data and re-initiating everything it seems to have successfully completed a scan. I will continue to monitor this and see if this problem is resolved. * [04-Mar-2024 14:15:17 UTC] SCAN STEP 2 – DIRECTORIES SCANNED, START FILE RUNNER [ 04-Mar-2024 14:15:17 UTC] SCAN STEP 3 – START FILE RUNNER[04-Mar-2024 14:15:33 UTC] SCAN STEP 4 – FILE RUN COMPLETED[04-Mar-2024 14:15:33 UTC] SCAN STEP 5 – INITIAL FILE COMPARISON RUN COMPLETE * Plugin Author [robertabela](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robert681/) * (@robert681) * [2 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-has-been-initialising-for-a-week/#post-17478635) * I am glad to read that [@wyclef](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wyclef/). * Should you have any other issues, do not hesitate to get in touch.
