Network Solutions: Plugin Upgrades Fail

    I’m dealing with NSI as a host for the first time. Like the way they do the one click install for WP even though it’s only for 2.8.4 so I immediately upgraded to 2.9.1. Like even more they automatically install a bunch of plugins but they needed to be upgraded immediately. So I tried to do that with the Automatic Upgrade and they all come back as Plugin Upgrade Failed. Here’s what I don’t like. I email NSI’s support and they come back and tell me that it failed because the plugins are only supposed to work with 2.8.4 even though I’m on 2.9.1. That makes no sense. Also, they’re the only host where if I want to upgrade, I need to go to a Connection Settings screen and login. How can I eliminate that?

    I’m having the same problems with my client’s wp install.

    I found this thread after searching for a solution to the problem of a; username, password, or hostname error message on first install with network solutions. I was certain the username & password were correct.

    In the database manager, after you create your database. Go back to it, click on the blue database name link and grab the ip address
    listed & use that for for DB_Host

    /** MySQL hostname */
    define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘xxx.xxx.xxx.xx’)

    This worked for me.
    I did not enter any ftp info as listed above, only database info.
    I was installing WordPress 3.2.0
