Activating a plugin with a fatal error is not possible and returns no error

Closed this issue · 2 comments

When someone attempts to activate a plugin containing a fatal error in vanilla WordPress, the plugin is not activated and the UI displays an error message explaining why the plugin wasn't activated.

When someone attempts to activate a plugin containing a fatal error in VIP Go, the plugin is not activated but no error message is shown.

An error message should be displayed as it is in vanilla WordPress.

That's weird, do you have any idea why this could be occurring?

Nope 😄

I'd need to do some more testing around it, I noticed the problem in the course of testing the Deploy Queue, so I just dumped the issue here for the record and ran away to do more testing.
