    In the past few days I’ve had reports that users weren’t able to access my site. They were just getting a blank page.

    I checked the error_log and found this.

    [22-Nov-2014 22:07:41 UTC] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected end of file in /mysite/wp-includes/post.php on line 235

    I was running v4.0 and I force upgraded to v4.0.1 via softaculous, that seems to of fixed the issues. Which is great for now.

    My concern is what caused this.

    In my site root I found a .maintenance file and I couldn’t access the the upgrade folder.

    I wonder if it was the site trying to auto update this security update which that failed.

    Has anyone else come across this error?

    I am not too sure where the link is but there was a link floating around that explained there was an issue in rare cases where some severs/hosts was butting heads with something in the automatic update and some files were not being transferred fully or not at all.

    I good place to check would be the current tickets. I know the post about the automatic updates was made by Ipstenu a few days ago but it seems to have slipped away.
