Postie was my issue too… removed it and all seems to be well.

Also, how did you identify which plugin was the problem without an error message? Trial and error? I have a whole bunch installed. If I have to manually remove their directories one by one I will, but it would be nice to identify which was causing a problem first…

I accidentally posted on an unrelated thread a few minutes ago, but this one matches exactly. ??

So “me too”.

Specifically:

I did an install through the update page on the dashboard. I looked away and was doing something else in another window while it was downloading and installing. I came back and saw nothing but a blank screen instead of the “success” message. Poking around, the blog itself is up, but I also get nothing but blank screens when trying to access any part of the dashboard. No error like I’ve seen in some other threads. It looked like in that other thread there was a plug in conflict, and removing that plugin directory (postie) solved the problem. But I am not getting any errors at all, just the blank screens like tfratzel.

Is our best bet to manually download 3.3 and copy over all the files by hand?

Or should we be looking at something else?

Sorry, I thought I was posting a “me too”, but only later realized his issue was different. Will make a new thread.

Oops, to be clear, unlike the first poster, I was not manually installing 3.2.1. I had whatever was the latest as of yesterday, and as soon as I saw the “update available” button that said 3.3 was available, I hit the button, and now have the same blank screen issue.

Which server logs should I be looking at for clues specifically? Is there an upgrade log in one of the wp directories?
