Directory path is missing slashes, causing uncaught exception and scan failure.

[johnalarcon]

Works on live HTTP, but not on my localhost; missing slashes are causing an uncaught exception. The plugin skipped everything as too large to be scanned, even a 10 line dummy plugin. WP-cron is working fine. PHP ini values are more than generous. Error log shows the following (et al) for each plugin scanned. Never got around to doing the themes; killed the process after about a half hour and getting through less than 10 plugins. See the error at the end below... all the slashes are missing from the plugin path. I'm on Windows 10, XAMPP, PHP 7.2.3, Compatibility Checker 1.4.6.

Having exact the same issue.
Ironically I created a local WAMP installation because of the following recommendation (from the Plugin-Site)

The best way around this timeout issue is to run this plugin on a local copy of your site

Is this still the same issue as #128 reported over one and a half years ago?

Almost forgot:
I fixed it locally by modifiying the method that inserts the plugin-paths (that will be analyzed) into the database.
I simply replaced the windows path-seperator (backslashes) with unix (slash)

If anyone is interested
Replace this block:

phpcompat/src/wpephpcompat.php

Lines 464 to 474 in dc72e59

	private function add_directory( $name, $path ) {
	$dir = array(
	'post_title' => $name,
	'post_content' => $path,
	'post_status' => 'publish',
	'post_author' => 1,
	'post_type' => 'wpephpcompat_jobs',
	);
	return wp_insert_post( $dir );
	}

by

	private function add_directory( $name, $path ) {
		$tpath = str_replace("\\","/", $path);
		$dir = array(
			'post_title'   => $name,
			'post_content' => $tpath,
			'post_status'  => 'publish',
			'post_author'  => 1,
			'post_type'    => 'wpephpcompat_jobs',
		);

		return wp_insert_post( $dir );
	}

The file is located ${wp_dir}\wp-content\plugins\php-compatibility-checker\src\wpephpcompat.php

Same problem. Will try the recommended fix.
