Howdy,

Wordpress: 2.1.2
Firefox: Mozilla/5.0
Web site: EICexclusive.com/eictrade (login required)

I have downloaded: 1171856503_wp_skype_status_2.5.zip

I unzipped it,

Uploaded it to: EICexclusive.com/eictrade/wp-content/pluggins

The tree look like:
EICexclusive
ecitrade
wp-content
plugins
(some more plugins)
skype-status
templates (folder)
tinymce (folder)
readme.txt
skype-status.php
skype_button.gif
skype_marker.gif
updgrade/txt
ac_authenticator.php
buttonsnap.php
hello.php
stylesheets.php
update-mamger.php
wp-db-backup.php
themes
I activated it,

When I click on the Wordpress, OPTIONS, Skype status - I get this
error:

CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete
set of HTTP headers.

I have deleted the files from the server, redownloaded the
1171856503_wp_skype_status_2.5.zip file
Unzipped - etc,. 3 times - I keep getting the same erro: CGI Error

Help?

I connot really place the error. Can you provide more info on your
server settings? PHP version, security rules...? Do you have access to
server error log files and can you find any related error there?

You might try the following:
1. Download the latest dev version from http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/skype-online-status/
2. Upload (overwrite) and see if the error is still there
3. Change the skype-status.php file like so:
find on lines 148-151

if (ini_get('allow_url_fopen'))
define('ALLOWURLFOPEN', TRUE);
else
define('ALLOWURLFOPEN', FALSE);

put '//' in font of lines 148,149,150 so it will look like:

//if (ini_get('allow_url_fopen'))
// define('ALLOWURLFOPEN', TRUE);
//else
define('ALLOWURLFOPEN', FALSE);

4. Report here if the error persists or changes.

Raven,
Thanks for the feedback- right now I at the 36th hour and need some sleep.
Can I get back to in about 8 hours?
Sorry - but I can't hardly type anymore even (good thing I have spell
checker!)

I will look at this 1st thing and then get back too.

Thanks again for the feedback!
