Hello All
Upgrading from 2.5 to 2.8.1. Followed the ‘three step instructions’, disabled plugins, deleted everything except the wp-content folder, copied the new ‘index’ files over. Used a new style wp-config and so on. Went to wp-admin/upgrade.php and it found database, did the database upgrade. Site displayed ok, apart from the compact archives not working (because I deactivated the plugin). Went to log in, got the log-in form but red message, used the reset function, got sent an e-mail, followed the link, got another e-mail with a new random password, typed that in and got the invalid warning again.
I’ve tried renaming folders, and the MySqlAdmin method for changing the password, no deal.
I’m restoring the 2.5 version now and will then reproduce the steps tomorrow being very careful.
Is this a bug or a feature?
