Fatal Error on Homepage

I just moved the site from a shared hosting server at Go Daddy to a managed WordPress hosting account at Go Daddy & that is when I got the error. I didn’t update the plugin or change any of the feeds / settings… everything was exactly the same as it was on the old server.

Go Daddy managed hosting accounts have a built-in caching system that I can’t turn off & I have a feeling the caching is the causing issue.

I hope this additional info helps.

My issue has no relation to updating the plugin. It just happens. A lot. It’s worth noting that it’s not happening now on any of my sites. So that’s exciting.

Yup that’s exactly what we think also. Right now I am just trying to figure out ANY way to reproduce it so that I can get in touch with GoDaddy support with the data and see what we can do with it.

It is also happening on other hosts though, but if we can at least figure it out in one spot then hopefully all the rest will be smooth sailing.

RIGHT NOW:
My site is currently down, but only on Firefox. Typical error message is up. I am on an Apple Pro and running OSX 10.7.5

I have this error 100% of the time, across platforms.

Of note, if you flush the cache of the calendar, it will appear ok on the first page of the site that you navigate to. However, once you navigate anywhere on the site (or even reload for that matter), the error occurs. Furthermore, the error seems to effect the rest of the side bar widgets.

Here are some screenshots:

I am on GoDaddy, and use a customized theme…Hope this helps with a resolution!

I have disabled the plugin for now.

(I also sent over my sysinfo) – Thanks so much for working so diligently toward a resolution.

Yes, I experienced that same thing just the other day. I’d clear the GoDaddy cache, or the GCal cache, and then navigate to a page and it was fine. But once a second click event took place, the website went down.

Thanks for the updates everyone.

Nick and I are still trying a ton of stuff, but it’s tough since we can’t repeat the issue for ourselves yet. We signed up for a GoDaddy WP hosting account just to test this and still can’t repeat.

We’re starting to look at GoDaddy’s “must-use” plugin called gd-system-plugin (installed on every WP site under /wp-content/mu-plugins). It appears also has their own configured object-cache.php (under /wp-content).

If any other developers using this plugin want to take a look and have any ideas you can respond here and/or open up an issue on our GitHub project.

We’ll also post back once we have more findings or things to try.

If all you X Theme customers haven’t done so already, it might help speed things up if you put in requests with the folks over at X Theme.

Just reference this plugin and my name.

Note they’ve been very responsive to me, they just state that they’re still working on other feature releases and such at the moment.

Hello Everyone,

If you have FTP access to your site can you check and see if you have a file called object-cache.php located in the wp-content folder.

If you do try changing the name of it to something like _object-cache.php.

What we are trying to do is narrow this down even more, and it seems like this file could be causing some of the issue, but the more testers we have for that the better!

Also, it may be recreated automatically by the host, so just check back in on it maybe once a day to see if it is still renamed.

If you do not have an object-cache.php file then please also let us know that as well so that we can see what other routes we may need to look.

Thanks all and thanks so much for your patience and contributions to helping us get this resolved!

Ok I did that. Done.

Internet was down for a few hours and when it returned my site was also down again.

Thanks Adam, let me know if it seems to help at all.

Our calendar has disappeared as well.

Interesting – this feed is working, but our other feed has stopped working. They both pull from the same Google Calendar

…and a newly created feed from the same Cal fails to show up:
