Scan Fails Immediately

Hello @netcentsii,

Sorry you’re having this issue.

May I ask you to follow these steps in order to provide us with additional info?

Also, if you have access to them, could you please check the web server logs?
Note that some log files might be available in the Log Files (Error messages from WordPress core, plugins, and themes) section on the “Wordfence –> Tools –> Diagnostics” page

Alternatively you could also enable the WordPress debugging feature.

1. Adjusted the max_execution_time to 15 as instructed, reran SCAn, no significant change.

2. Adjusted the max_execution_time to 24 which is 80% of diagnostics page value.
Scans went further then stalled at step “Scanning for unknown files in wp-admin and wp-includes.”

Hi @netcentsii,

Please have a look at these suggestions.

@netcentsii,

In case you’re still experiencing the issue, could you please:

• Go to the Wordfence Tools page
• Click the Diagnostics tab
• Scroll down to the Send Report by Email section
• Send the report to yann[at]wordfence[dot]com

Also could you try and enable the debugging mode, start a new scan and paste here the last 20 lines or so of the activity log?
