 * Since latest plugin update I have the following error when I try to read log 
   tab:

 * How to debug ? I tried with several browsers. All same problem. Is it a database
   problem ? Runing php 7.0, Ubuntu 16.04.

 * Hi [@cybergirl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cybergirl/),
 * I’m sorry about this issue.
 * > {“save-widget”:1,”widgets-order”:1…
 * This is also JSON response by ajax. Does this content always appear on the setting
   page, or you had just once?
 * Anyway, it seems that ajax communication between server and browser has failed.
 * At first, would you try to clean and refresh the cache in your browsers just 
   in case?
 * Then please diagnose JavaScript errors on browser’s [error console](https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Your_Browser_to_Diagnose_JavaScript_Errors#Step_3:_Diagnosis)
   or server side errors on [network console](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Network_Monitor).
 * I apologize for the inconvenience.
 * P.S. I had tested the PHP version from 5.2.6 to 7.2.8, and MySQL 5.0.67 and 5.5.27.

 * Hi,
 * it is when I go to the settings of plugin first page. Browser cache and also 
   server cache is already cleaned. I tried also by disabling cache plugin and other
   plugins maybe have connection with this problem. All without any change to the
   problem.
    BTW: my browsers settings are for set for all, when browser shut, than
   cookies and cache are deleted. So this should be not the problem. As I said, 
   the problem persists on Firefox, Opera and also Chrome. Could it be a problem
   with phython ? Although I don’t use it, it is installed on the server and I for
   security reasons updated this in the last weeks for several times. Version is
   2.7.12. Another thing I did, was to secure phpmyadmin site by .htpasswd. Besides
   plugin update and the named updates, there was no any other change on server/
   site.
 * With network monitor tool: there are no JS, XHR or other errors. Could it be 
   a firewall problem ?

 * Hi,
 * Thank you for your clarifing about all the browsers & server cache. Then we can
   focus on the reason why ajax fails.
 * > Could it be a problem with phython ?
 * No, I don’t think so.
 * > Another thing I did, was to secure phpmyadmin site by .htpasswd.
 * I guess you set .htpasswd into the directory of phpMyAdmin to apply digest authentication
   and it should not affect your WordPress site itself.
 * Humm…
 * > Could it be a firewall problem ?
 * Could be, if something your server’s configuration has changed. Although I don’t
   assume it, I’ll try to reproduce the issue by doing something on my server.
 * I’d appreciate you if you test the previous version 3.0.15 (you can download 
   it from [https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/ip-geo-block.3.0.15.zip](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/ip-geo-block.3.0.15.zip))
   to investigate the issue happens.
 * Keep track this thread please.
    Thanks.

 * Hi,
 * you can close my support. I investigated what furthermore could be happen. I 
   don’t know why, but wp-config.php had a BOM. On same day of pluginupdate I deleted
   there a include_once line for a script not in use anymore. Seems that the editor
   added a BOM to this script. After removing the BOM all is working again.
 * Thank you for your assistance and sorry for the false error. In fact it was my
   fault.
 * Whish you a nice weekend.
