As noted in the release notes of version 2.4.3, there have been some changes affecting Professional users upgrading from version 2.4.2 or earlier. These changes may also affect some new installations. As a result of those changes, trying to run a scan –even after upgrading to the latest version– might not work properly and end up with no results. If this happens please click on the blue Configure button in the PHP File Scanner page and set the following file types to scan (one on each line):
php
phps
php3
php5
inc


Please note that there are no dots in front of the extensions, everything is lowercase and it's one extension per line.

Make sure the minimum execution time is set to 1, maximum execution time set to 5 and runtime bias set to 75%. Then click on the Save & Close button. This will allow the PHP File Scanner to work correctly.
