Recursive redirect after 2.3 upgrade

  • After upgrading to 2.3, the main page of the blog redirects to itself indefinitely. The admin pages work fine, but the blog doesn’t render at all.

    Yes, I disabled all plugins, and even wrote a shell script to back everything up, and restore everything when the upgrade breaks.

    When I went to upgrade.php it reported a lot of database errors (mostly tables already exist type errors, which didn’t seem a big deal), but ultimately says the upgrade was successful.

    I tried switching themes, no dice. Also, I added a functions.php to my theme with:

    remove_action(‘template_redirect’, ‘redirect_canonical’);

    Which made the header of the blog render, but none of the content.

    Any ideas?

    I fixed it by re-activating a plugin that the page needed to render (‘Breadcrumbs’). I shoulda looked in the apache log before posting, but in case anyone else has this problem — add the functions.php file to your theme!

    OK, I take it back – the fix to functions.php didn’t work. If anyone has any ideas, I’d love to hear them.

    I think that’s a permalink issue. Try disabling/re-enabling them. Also if you use a plugin that rewrites the permalinks, make sure it’s WP 2.3 compatible before enabling it again.
