No luck getting any support. I’ve got to the point of deleting everything and beginning a clean installation of WP then the plugin. * The problem persists. I get similar messages for every plugin I try to install. * wordtoyomutah, where do you host your site? * Thread Starter [wordtoyomutah](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordtoyomutah/) * (@wordtoyomutah) * [14 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-e-commerce-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin/#post-2279614) * godaddy. i think its most likely a plugin issue but not 100 pecent sure, i have the same type of problem with eshop. its the only plugins ive had issues with. let me know if you find solution. * [RichardWPG](https://wordpress.org/support/users/richardwpg/) * (@richardwpg) * [14 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-e-commerce-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin/#post-2279616) * what version of wordpress are you using? * Thread Starter [wordtoyomutah](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordtoyomutah/) * (@wordtoyomutah) * [14 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-e-commerce-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin/#post-2279617) * 3.2.1 * [CyFree](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cyfree/) * (@cyfree) * [14 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-e-commerce-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin/#post-2279639) * I am with GoDaddy too.. and I am beggining to suspect it is a hosting issue. * It happened with other plugins as well… eShop, and all the contact form plugins. * They all seem to be trying to write to a path that resides outside the folder we have access to. So I am assuming the hosting server is not giving the plugins access. * I’ve been with their support back and forth and ended up backing up the site in my computer and re-installing the WordPress from scratch. * If this is a matter that can be solved by the plugin developers we will never know. You can’t get support in the plugin developer sites. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-e-commerce-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin/#post-2279640) * > You can’t get support in the plugin developer sites. * That’s a little much considering I can’t find any record of you ever posting on eShop’s dedicated forum. * [CyFree](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cyfree/) * (@cyfree) * [14 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-e-commerce-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin/#post-2279641) * esmi, wordotoyomutah did post about it. * My problem is exact the same, so I did not bother re posting since his post got no answer. * Are you with the eShop team? Can you help explain what is going on? * You did reply to one of my previous posts, recommending me to change themes, which I did but it is not a theme problem. * I chose a theme that is reportedly compatible with the plugin and the problem persists. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-e-commerce-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin/#post-2279642) * > wordotoyomutah did post about it. * Can you provide a link to that post on the Quirm.net forums? * > Are you with the eShop team? * Yes. * [CyFree](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cyfree/) * (@cyfree) * [14 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-e-commerce-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin/#post-2279643) * You are right. It is in the WP forum for the plugin. Not the Quirm forum. * And you answered and gave him the same answer you gave me. Uninstall plugins and change themes. * [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eshop-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin?replies=2](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eshop-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin?replies=2) * Did not solve the problem. * The plugins are trying to write into a non existent path. Can it be changed? * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-e-commerce-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin/#post-2279645) * > The plugins are trying to write into a non existent path.

That’s a server issue – not a plugin one. * [CyFree](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cyfree/) * (@cyfree) * [14 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-e-commerce-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin/#post-2279646) * In that case, what do I need to tell the server support? What do they need to do? Because they tell me that the developers might be able to change the line in the code that is calling that function. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-e-commerce-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin/#post-2279648) * Exactly what has been said here.

The issue is related the sessions data that is controlled by the php.ini file for your account. Just had this issue myself upgrading from GoDaddy’s legacy servers to their new grid for a client. * Best of luck. * [akumaduma](https://wordpress.org/support/users/akumaduma/) * (@akumaduma) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-e-commerce-errors-immediatley-after-activating-plugin/#post-2279793) * i’m currently developing a site on localhost (xampp) and got the following error after upgrading wpec: * `Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in C:\xampp\htdocs\ wordpress\wp-content\plugins\wp-e-commerce\wpsc-core\wpsc-constants.php on line 17` * i simply cleared the saved cookies in my browser, logged back in and it worked again. i suspect there was a conflict between an old session and one attempting to be started by the upgraded version of wpec.
