So my wordpress poop’d shortly after creation.
I think I accidentally uncommented
mbstring.func_overload
On the freebsd port install of PHP, it was set to 2, I set to 0 and now the error.
PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT
Now does not happen when i try to update/install stuff and my blog overall seems to not have those odd querks, sweet. Seems lots had this issue randomly with scripts, took awhile to find someone mention this in particular.
Now I’m testing W3 Total Cache and will start loading this blog with more mods to emulate lots of our clients blog’s, and see which methods prove the best performance for their web traffic and our systems.
