Installed Civi 4.3.0 on Wordpress 3.4.1
Running Centos 5, PHP Version 5.3.23 (1&1 VPS)

Had this problem upon installing CiviCRM:

CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when safe_mode is enabled or an open_basedir is set

Fixed it by editing the appropriate PHP file as directed on this drupal forum (worked) http://drupal.org/node/1699868

Fixing that problem allowed me to install CiviCRM into WordPress

However, upon opening CiviCRM started to get this error repeatedly:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /var/www/vhosts/#mysite#/site2/wp-content/plugins/civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Utils/File.php on line 530

so I pull File.php and here is the offending code (line 530 is the one with arrows):

static function findFiles($dir, $pattern) {
    $todos = array($dir);
    $result = array();
    while (!empty($todos)) {
      $subdir = array_shift($todos);
>>>>>>>foreach (glob("$subdir/$pattern") as $match) {
        if (!is_dir($match)) {
          $result[] = $match;
        }
      }
      $dh = opendir($subdir);
      if ($dh) {
        while (FALSE !== ($entry = readdir($dh))) {
          $path = $subdir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $entry;
          if ($entry == '.' || $entry == '..' || $entry == '.svn') {
          } elseif (is_dir($path)) {
            $todos[] = $path;
          }
        }
        closedir($dh);
      }
    }
    return $result;
  }
But have no idea how to fix it. The problem produces the error cumulatively, so now I have 40+ lines repeating the error before my content. I could just switch error reporting off and whistle in the dark, but it needs to be fixed. Ideas?

Lastly, upon attempting to install an extension I got this problem:

You will not be able to install extensions at this time because your installation of PHP does not support ZIP archives. Please ask your system administrator to install the standard PHP-ZIP extension.

Sorted it out (eventually), here is the saga of how to sort it out, for anyone on 1&1 servers:
Firstly find out what packages you do have installed.
$ rpm -qa | grep php-devel
$ rpm -qa | grep gccIf you are on 1&1 you probably won't have either (as I discovered, the long and hard way).
yum install php-devel
yum install gccThen to install the PHP support of ZIP files needed for CiviCRM extension to work:
pecl install zipNavigate to /etc/php.ini and add to Dynamic Extensions:
extension=zip.so
Restart PHP service
/sbin/service httpd restartThat sorts out the Zip problem.

Found the CiviCRM Extensions part a little counter intuitive - could do with plain English statements such as "to install a third party extension, extract and install into /civicrm/files/civicrm/extensions" or to include an "upload" button which does it for you (instead of Yumming or FTPing).

I have had subsequent problems with the Extensions that I have been trying to install, but I will address that directly elsewhere. Thanks for all the hard work guys.

Try casting the glob output as an array:
foreach ((array) glob("$subdir/$pattern") as $match) {
Let me know if that fixes it and I can push that change into 4.3.1

For the other issue, I filed http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-12335
