WordPress Upgrade Killed Access to /wp-admin Pages

    I’m not a super savvy WordPress user, so try to dumb down any highly technical responses to little ole’ me. ??

    When we went to upgrade the core to the latest version tonight, the front end held steady but the /wp-admin back-end suddenly no longer takes me to the back-end. It looks like it redirects us to this URL, which delivers a 404: /wp-admin/upgrade.php?_wp_http_referer=%2Fwp-admin%2F

    (We automatically back up our content using an online backup tool – but even if we wanted to revert to it we’d have to do it via FTP, which is confusing for this non-dev web team, instead of through the WP back-end.)

  • It seems like you have an issue with the way links are routing. Can you try replacing the .htaccess file in your root directory. This could also be a permissions issue.

    I don’t know how to read the .htaccess… does this look off?

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    Looks when you updated it did not update fully you can update manually using ftp
    Replace all files and folders except wp-content folder and wp-config.php file from fresh download and run
    domainname/wp-admin/upgrade.php

    That was it! Thank you all! Very helpful. Much appreciated.

    I have not been on my web page in a while and I recieved 4 plugin updates. I did them and now I can not log into the admin site and if I do get in I get this responce.

    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 273 bytes) in /hermes/bosweb/web073/b735/ipg.keyman4uministries/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 567

    I do not work off my computer although I would like to, just have never been able to figure out how and your helps have been no help.

    So the short of it is I Run off of my server. The last time I got an err message like this it took two weeks for it to clear ups and the server can do nothing they told me to contact this site. What do I need to do to correct the isssue and get back into my admn slot. I am locked out.

    Sorry I will start a new page request
