Upgrade 2.6.3 killed my Blog – please help!

    Hi,

    last night when I upgraded my db to the latest version, something very odd has happened – it’s vanished from the https://www.robbellblog.com url but you can still see it at robbellblog.com – I’ve checked my DNS settings at my host and the www should autoresolve to same ip.

    Further to that problem, my login screen has vanished altogether – from either url. I’ve restored everything from a back-up to pre-upgrade – all the files and the database, but the problem hasn’t gone.

    Can anyone help? I’ve never had any problems installing or upgrading WP before!

    Thanks in advance,

    Rob

    In the end, I deleted everything on the domain and restored from a week old backup – that did the trick! Then upgraded to 2.6.3 and it worked first time – yay! If only I’d seen the post yesterday that said that you only needed to upload 2 new files for 2.6.3 – could have saved a day.

    I might not be so quick to update without reading everything for 48 hours first next time!

    actually there are 4

    wp-admin/includes/media.php
    wp-content/plugins/akismet/akismet.php
    wp-includes/class-snoopy.php
    wp-includes/version.php
    `

    in case others read this. I thought there were 2 too but didn’t diff.
