# Plugin’s Not Activating

 * My wordpress blog, version 1.5.2, had been working fine since I installed it.
   Today when I went to my blog, I noticed that I was getting an error on the sidebar,
   and figured out that it was messed up because of a plugin that wasn’t activated.
 * When I went to the plugin page, there was a php error, and all my plugins were
   deactivated. I tried activating them, but now it just says “Plugin activated.”
   even though it’s really not being activated.
 * Any ideas what the matter is?

 * If this happened when you weren’t “looking”, I’d suggest looking at your hosting
   environment. Something has changed, somewhere.
