can you try something for me?

if file simple-press/sp-api/sp-api-error.php, can you make a couple code changes?

line 34, change

    global $spStatus;

to

    global $spStatus, $wpdb;

then after line 35, which is

    if (!isset($spStatus) || (isset($spStatus) && $spStatus != ‘ok’)) return;

can you add this:

$success = $wpdb->get_var(“SHOW TABLES LIKE ‘”.SFERRORLOG.”‘”);
if ($success == false) return;

and then similarly at line 79, change

    global $spPaths, $spStatus;

to

    global $spPaths, $spStatus, $wpdb;

and after line 80, which is

    if (!isset($spStatus) || (isset($spStatus) && $spStatus != ‘ok’)) return;

can you add this:

$success = $wpdb->get_var(“SHOW TABLES LIKE ‘”.SFERRORLOG.”‘”);
if ($success == false) return;

and see if that gets you going…

and see if that gets you going…

SUCCESS!   Strike up the band!

Thank you very much!

hey, good news!  sorry for the issue…

If you’re looking for a potential fix, see Mr. Papa’s 9/30 4:21 PM reply in this thread.  Those instructions worked great for me when I got a similar error when activating SP in a brand new WP multi-site installation.

And we will almost certainly put out a quickie update to fix this problem later today.
Apologies to those affected.

I did think about that, but i noticed yours was a different line on the functions.php

if that will work for me as well someone just chime in and i’ll give it a shot.

I saw detail that after I had replied.    I’ll leave it up to minds far more knowledgeable than mine to get you that answer.

Oh my I missed that.

What version exactly of WP is this please?

 3.5.1.

Ahhh! One version no longer have a copy of!
However – SP 5.3.2 requires WP 3.6 because of WP changes that needed supportive changes in our code.

so an upgrade to the latest version will fix my issues?

No… but you do need to upgrade to wp 3.6 to use the version of sp you have – separate from the error in title..

You either need to incorporate the changes here:  https://simple-press.com/support-forum/sp5-general-topics/fatal-error-on-install-functions-php-line-3847/page-2/#p133234

or wait for the release this afternoon of the 5.3.3 version…

Ok i’ll just wait for the 5.3.3 version 

Its been released… but you still should be on wp 3.6+…
