Because I am unable to get into my admin area, I cannot disable the stupid cache and even though I have deleted all cached files and the wp_cache_mutex.lock over and over again…everytime I try to view my page, the wp_cache_mutex.lock file reappears in the file manager!!!

Does anyone know how to get rid of it?

I can’t even get to my admin panel to do any of this. I can only get to the file manager.

Yahoo tech won’t help – it isn’t their product.

What can I do?

I even can;t access the wp dashboard. Then I delete wp_cache_mutex.lock at wp-content/cache. And it works perfectly, thx

Beetlejuice – that is a different problem… blank pages is a totally different issue.

This is a new problem which has cropped up with Dreamhost (and maybe others)… and hard to believe but no solutions can be found.

This error will cause your entire blog to be down and usually will spit out ugly error messages on your home page that look something like…

blah blah wp-cache-phase2.php on line 96

Dreamhost have a fix for this problem in their Help pages:

1. Open /wp-content/plugins/wp-cache/wp-cache-phase2.php file* in your favourite text editor, where is the domain that you’re having troubles with EG: dreamhost.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-cache/wp-cache-phase2.php
2. Alternatively if that file is not in that location for some reason you can issue this command to find it from the directory: find . -name wp-cache-phase2.php
3. Locate the wp_cache_ob_end function
4. then inside that function find the line with: ob_end_clean(); (it should be line 219 or about)
5. and finally replace that line with: ob_end_flush();

if your new host is godaddy then there is no fix currently because its a problem with the host.

I have just installed WP-Cache and was happy to finally get it working. Right after i started getting 500 errors. So i knew something was up. After doing some research i found out that all people with godaddy.com have this problem and can not fix it. I tried deleting the wp_cache_mutex.lock file and all that but the problem just wont go away.

So far I’m told there is no solution. But nice post i found it on google. just thought i would leave that godaddy.com has a problem as well.
