Login/Logout issues with v2.8.4

  • I upgraded several of my blogs to v2.8.4 via subversion[1] today, and now I’m having all sorts of login issues.

    On 2 blogs, when I attempt to log in[2], I get a blank screen. When I attempt to display the code for the page[3], it’s blank. On a third blog, where I still seem to have an active login cookie, if I click ‘logout’, I also get a blank page (with blank html code as well). In addition to this, I’m apparently not logged out… when I go back to the main page, or the wp-admin page, I still can move around without changing users.

    Any ideas?

    Self resolved:

    NOTES for all SVN users. This is probably obvious, but if you self hack your code, make sure you back out your changes before you upgrade. There was invalid code placed in wp-login.php by subversion. Once I pushed wp-login.php.r11807 overtop of wp-login.php, everything was fine again.

    I’m having a very similar issue, but I’m not familiar with Subversion at all. Can you describe your fix in greater detail?

    If you didn’t use subversion (svn) to upgrade your blog, you won’t run into my issue at all.

    But to answer: check your blog’s root directory (not wp-admin). If:

    ls wp-login*

    only shows one file, you’re fine. Otherwise you need to blow away all of them except (currently) wp-login.php.r11807 , and then rename it to be wp-login.php .
