This is the only way I could fix the update problem

WP 3.2.1 update media / editor fixed

There was no problem with the update on my local machine.
Found the problem relating to the database on my virtual host.

It might be worth starting with a fresh database and importing the backup of your content only.

Also using this method there is no need to add the following to your wp-config using this process:
define(‘SCRIPT_DEBUG’, true);
define(‘CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’, false )

Can I just summarise so far.
I have found the problem to do with the database setup on the virtual host, not jQuery issues etc. It is also not connected with the auto install, because I began the process with manual install.

I have found this process to be the most stable and successful way so far.
It has fixed the problem with the image ‘select files’ button and the ‘visual html tab’, which is first experience

1. Use the manual install process using .zip, but remember you will still see the issue
2. This next part is when we fix the issue. You need to install wordpress on a local machine, because this is the only way I have been able to make this work in the simplest way.
3. There is no need to add the following to your wp-config using this process:

• define(‘SCRIPT_DEBUG’, true);
• define(‘CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’, false );

• Backup the local machine’s default database (which means nothing added or settings changed).

• Change the database settings e.g db name, db user, db password
• change any reference to the localhost URL where these settings are needed e.g in the options folder, which can be done using find and replace

.

• Backup the tables for pages, posts, categories etc. into a separate file.
• After manual install of wordpress on the virtual host import the 2 x database backups separately (I use phpmyadmin)

Just another update, which is regards to updating your new installation with all your data for pages, posts and categories (taxonomy) etc.
You should update these tables separately.

Create a separate backup file of the following tables:

• wp_postmeta
• wp_posts
• wp_term_relationships
• wp_term_taxonomy
• wp_terms

Not sure what’s the best way to perform a backup if it should be a CSV etc, but I use a SQL dump so some of the file information contains something like this:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS wp_postmeta;
CREATE TABLE wp_postmeta (

This works just fine and everything is still working! Yippee!

Also I am happy to share my PHPINFO just incase you have any questions about this because I also read there are others having problems with JSON of their PHP version.
Just let me know.
Although my media select files button is now working I still chose re-install the following plugin ‘wordpress flash uploader’.
The above link also goes to the wrong place.

This would work for me. Thanks
