Option name sorter has an error

Hi,

I recently found ouf that my "option name sorter" has the following error:
Warning: session_start(): Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/dealbyet/public_html/admin/option_name.php:45) in /home/dealbyet/public_html/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 221

I went to have a look at the files. But I have no idea what I should change to fix the error. Please help. Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Ethan

Reload a clean copy of the file ... it looks like you have a bad upload ...

The problem is happening in:
admin/option_name.php
at:
line 45

Perhaps re-uploading the file may get rid of corruption contained therein ?

Hi DrByte and Ajeh,

I had a look at line 45. But I couldn't figure out what's wrong on that line. I also tried re-uploading but it didn't help. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

Regards,
Ethan

Re: Option name sorter has an error

Delete the file on your server ... reload again ...

If it still dies ... could you post lines 40 to 50?

Hi Ajeh,

line 40-50 is shown as follows:

Re: Option name sorter has an error

Your file is double-spaced. Likely from problems introduced by converting from linux to windows and repeated download/uploads.

Download the original zip and unzip it and then re-upload the file.

Use a reliable FTP program like FileZilla or FlashFXP. Don't trust SmartFTP or cuteFTP.

The problem is the blank line between your ?> and <?php on that line, caused by the double-spacing.

Re: Option name sorter has an error

Hi DrByte,

Thanks for your help. I solved the problem by deleting the extra space in between ?> and <?php

I am a Mac user and using Fetch FTP client. I have been getting a lot of similar problem like this where extra space is created in files I never edited. Perhaps Fetch isn't so reliable. Do you have any suggestion for a good Mac FTP client? Thanks.

Best regards,
Ethan

Transmit, Fetch, and BBedit are the more popular ones, from my understanding, with varying degrees of reliability depending on what kind of host you're connecting to, versions of software, etc.
