We developed our site on WP 4.0. This was deployed from beta to a live environment. Up on going live, WP updated itself to 4.0.1 automatically. The site was running fine for about 12 hours or so. There after we received alerts for the site.
Wordpress Admin section (with admin login) showed the following message on dashboard.
“An Automated wordpress update has failed to complete – please attempt the ugrade now.”
The posts were not showing in ‘posts’ section.
On Front end Home page was throwing 500 in http response , and other pages had 404 response, perhaps due to failure of rewrite rules.
SERVER : AWS apache
OS : Cent OS 6.5
PHP : 5.6.3
MySQL : 5.6
We did not have the following lines in our wp-config.
define(‘DISALLOW_FILE_MODS’, true );
define(‘WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE’, false );
define(‘AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED’, true);
However, we encountered the same issue even after we put these constants in wp-config.php, that is, after we reverted to the code base from our git repository. But, we did not make any changes to database.
The site has lots of additional plugins and a custom theme.

What can be the issue?
]]>Has anyone else had this problem – and/or – is someone currently using an ad injector plugin where the random post insertion of an ad is working in WP 4.0.1?
(P.S. I can’t update to W.P. 4.1 at this time, because it has an issue on another site of mine, and until that is resolved, I don’t want to risk the same problem.)

Any ideas?
]]>It looks like my site did an automatic WordPress upgrade to 3.9.3 on November 20, which may have caused the problem. I tried to log into the wp-admin page this morning and saw the 404 error message, so I decided to go into my FTP log and manually upgrade to 4.0.1, but that didn’t fix the problem.
I have also tried the following:
? deactivated all plugins
? removed the .htaccess file from the root folder
? renamed my active theme’s folder to see if that was causing the problem
? added this code to my wp-config.php file:
define(‘WP_HOME’,’https://www.mysite.com’);
define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’https://www.mysite.com’);
? fiddled with a bunch of other snippets of code that I don’t remember that I found on some forums where people had the same problems
None of these have worked. I’ve wasted my day trying to fix this, and I’m at my wits’ end. Does anyone have any suggestions? TIA.
]]>You can see what I mean here: https://www.maurerconsultinggroup.com/blog The most recent post will not word wrap. Although the placement and wordwrap looks find in my dashboard editor, when previewed or published, the image moves to a position above the posting. I have tried with the caption and without the caption – makes no difference.
My theme is customized, based on Mercury, I believe. Am missing the ease of inserting images as well as ease of making ‘advanced’ changes like padding around the images.
Can anyone help? So far, Version 4.0 appears to be a step backwards in ease of use by those of us with no coding background, which WP has been built on.

Can we solve the problem?
What is the source of the problem?
You wonder Having plugin compatibility issues with WP 4.0.1?
Perhaps it’s time to update?
Your information.
Good work.

]]>One at least is not displaying some pages – I think it is a permalink issue but cannot troubleshoot.
Every thing was working great the same day before the auto update to WP 4.01
an example: www.paulgriffiths.info/aboutme but displays the sites home page… also /events does the same thing.
Permalink issue as plugins were fine and great before the 4.01
My knowledge of using WordPress is getting better all the time but this issue I am unsure how to continue. I don’t wish to disable all plugins – as all was fine before 4.01
Any thoughts?
]]>Redirect not working. I have all plugins deactivated and defaulted back to the twenty twelve theme and still no luck. Not sure if it’s new wordpress update or not as my wp was automatically updated during this project.
When trying to redirect it defaults to https://hyprdigital.com/client/thc/#FSContact1
here is the form:
https://hyprdigital.com/client/thc/
Hopefully someone can help. Thanks.
