Plugin error on new install of 4.8.8 Badly formed or empty plugin code
I get this error when trying to install any plugin on a brand new 4.8.8 install.
Badly formed or empty plugin code.
ied_plugin_composer_v1.2.1
etc_query
I searched the forum and tried these compiled plugins that Jakob built
https://forum.textpattern.com/viewtopic.php?pid=332440#p332440
Still the same error: Badly formed or empty plugin code.
I have tried direct install and the compressed version if they are available.
Plugin folder is 755 and I if I zip the .txt file it will unpack and place a file in the Plugin directory.
No luck, all attempts bring back: Badly formed or empty plugin code.
All these plugins load fine on our demo 4.8.8 site, so wondering what is wrong with my 4.8.8 install.

You are using quite an old version of PHP. This post might help to fix it.

Hmmm.
On TXP 4.8.8 and php 5.5.38 ALL .txt plugins result in a ’badly formed or empty plugin code‘.But the pre-encoded php originals upload just fine.
