 * Getting the following errors at the top of my page (pdximmigration.com):
 * Warning: include_once(/home3/[myaccountname]/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-
   super-cache/wp-cache-phase1.php) failed to open stream: No such file or directory
   in /home3/[myaccountname]/public_html/wp-content/advanced-cache.php on line 22
 * Warning: include_once(): Failed opening ‘/home3/[myaccountname]/public_html/wp-
   content/plugins/wp-super-cache/wp-cache-phase1.php’ for inclusion (include_path
   =’.:/opt/php56/lib/php’) in /home3/[myaccountname]/public_html/wp-content/advanced-
   cache.php on line 22
 * So, I had the WP Super Cash plugin installed in the past. I have since deleted
   it. Looking through FTP and cPanel, there are no wp-super-cache files left. The
   advanced-cache.php file is gone. The WP_CACHE define line is no longer in the
   wp-config.php file. I went through the steps outlined [here](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-cache/#installation).
 * I tried reinstalling and redeleting the plugin.
 * I tried switching themes as I am currently using Themify Ultra. Had the same 
   problem on the stock WordPress themes.
 * I do not use a CDN.
 * I have cleared my browser caches. The same problem shows up on private/incognito
   windows in Safari, Brave, and Chrome.
 * The error messages do NOT display on the mobile version of the site.
 * Very appreciative of any ideas.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fwarning-include_once-wp-super-cache-error%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi! If advanced-cache.php failed to open wp-cache-phase1.php it must be on a 
   server.
 * Plugin has this notification:
    “If uninstalling this plugin, make sure the directory_%
   s_ is writeable by the webserver so the files _advanced-cache.php_ and _cache-
   config.php_ can be deleted automatically.”

 * Thank you for your response. I am not sure I understand. advanced-cache.php and
   wp-cache-phase1.php no longer exist–they were deleted automatically when I uninstalled
   the plugin. I have checked for them in FTP and on the cPanel File Manager–where
   else could they be?

 * I looks like you solved the problem )
    I was about to suggest that you are looking
   in different folder like a reserve copy.

 * Hello coleenabnit,
 * As per my analysis,you should try this step:
 * 1.if possible restart or reload your apache server,It can resolve this error.
 * Thanks

 * [@oglekler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/oglekler/) I definitely did not
   solve the problem–the website is still showing the error message.
 * [@sumanm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumanm/) I have a shared hosting
   plan through HostGator, so I don’t think I can restart/reload the apache server,
   right?

 * Sometimes it’s here, sometimes it isn’t…
    Try to disable WP Performance Score
   Booster plugin.

 * But I see it… so, page must be cached at some point with these errors.
    Maybe
   your hosting provider offers such service?

 * [@oglekler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/oglekler/) That’s what I thought
   too but, as I understand it, HostGator does not cache on shared plans.

 * I’m getting out of versions… To restart your system like Sumanm suggested you
   can try change PHP version to another, reload your site and than switch it back
   again.

 * [@oglekler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/oglekler/) I have updated the
   PHP version but the issue is still there. Thank you for all your responses.

 * Hey everyone! I think the problem may be solved. Here is what I did:
 * – Upgraded PHP in HostGator;
    – Reinstalled WP Super Cache; – Set it up according
   to [these directions](https://www.hostgator.com/help/article/wp-super-cache-plugin);–
   Deleted the cache in WP Super Cache; – In cPanel File Manager, deleted the “Cache”
   file from the home folder; – Tested the cache in WP Super Cache (Everything looked
   good); – Used “Delete Cached Pages” in WP Super Cache; – Deleted the cache again.
 * The page now displays properly when I access it on Brave through a private window
   with Tor. Thank you [@oglekler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/oglekler/)
   and [@sumanm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumanm/) for taking the time
   to respond.

 * Hello, I had the same problem on my website. Problem on my website was because
   of a theme, try changing your theme.
