"The first argument should be an array in" Errors after Upgrading

  • I recently upgraded from 2.9.2 to 3.0.1.

    I followed the directions and was able to successfully copy the files and update my database.

    However, when I go to the themes section to try and apply a theme, I get 3 distinct (5 total) error messages.

    I did some searching, and found guides to correcting them… but when I followed the guides the error messages did not clear up.

    I am currently unable to apply, install, or view a theme. =(

    Errors:
    Warning: array_keys() [function.array-keys]: The first argument should be an array in c:\inetpub\vhosts\mysite.net\httpdocs\wp-includes\theme.php on line 513

    Warning: uksort() [function.uksort]: The argument should be an array in c:\inetpub\vhosts\mysite.net\httpdocs\wp-admin\themes.php on line 73

    Warning: array_slice() [function.array-slice]: The first argument should be an array in c:\inetpub\vhosts\mysite.net\httpdocs\wp-admin\themes.php on line 94

    If anyone has some tips, I’d be grateful. My wife misses her blog!

    More specifically, to address the help guides I found while searching:

    I disabled all plugins.
    I completely deleted the wp-admin and wp-includes and uploaded them a second time.
    I even renamed the default theme to the name of the theme I was currently using in case the theme itself was causing the issue.

    I just can’t seem to get around the issue.

    Varba, I’m in the midst of fighting the same issue for a client. I’m commenting so I can subscribe to followup.

    We have in the dashboard:
    (slightly edited to remove personally identifying path info)
    Warning: array_keys() [function.array-keys]: The first argument should be an array in /wp-includes/theme.php on line 513 in the dashboard, which tells us we’re running 3.0.3 and running upgrade.php tells us the database is current.

    In themes we have:
    Warning: array_keys() [function.array-keys]: The first argument should be an array in /wp-includes/theme.php on line 513

    Warning: uksort() [function.uksort]: The argument should be an array in wp-admin/themes.php on line 73

    Warning: array_slice() expects parameter 1 to be array, boolean given in /wp-admin/themes.php on line 94

    Warning: array_keys() [function.array-keys]: The first argument should be an array in /wp-admin/themes.php on line 150

    Warning: natcasesort() [function.natcasesort]: The argument should be an array in /wp-admin/themes.php on line 151

    In Widgets We Have:
    No Sidebars Defined

    The theme you are currently using isn’t widget-aware, meaning that it has no sidebars that you are able to change. For information on making your theme widget-aware, please follow these instructions.

    And in plugins it tells us we do not have any plugins installed (which is incorrect) even when they are installed (although at the moment I have them all removed).

    Things I’ve tried with no success:

    Manual Full Reinstall of all but wp-config (Although there is a wp-content/w3tc folder I can’t get to delete)

    Removing widget_text contents from the wp-options table (suggested by otto to affect a similar error that was at wp-includes/widgets.php)

    Disabling magic quotes both in htaccess and php.ini

    Removing all themes but TwentyTen from the host and verifying that the database understands that TwentyTen is the current template.

    Client also had the host do a cpanel rollback for him which returned him to 3.0.1 but did not resolve the errors. I’ve since done the manual upgrade that has moved him to 3.0.3 again.

    Commenting out the two lines for encoding from the wp-config file (which can be involved with a similar error but apparently not this one)

    I’m stumped.

    Support ticket with host filed to re-check all host file permissions and delete the wayward w3tc folder. Awaiting host and client followup.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    I have no idea how wp-content had gotten to 766 but it was confusing the daylights out of wordpress!
