I also cleaned up the posts and got rid of all the revisons just in case since a big posts file seems to be able to cause issues too…..

Fingers crossed…

Okidox, checked version.php, checked db… Here goes…

Gofe, are you sure? I have restored a backup since F. Z. reverted the site to 4.1.1

Gofe… ???? And what do I do if it doesn’t work again?

Gofe, Yes I am sure, but I will try again just to rule it out

Dave, Yes please and of course I will do the same

Marko, You haven’t caused any troubles. Thanks for your input

1and1 Came through for me again and reverted everything back to the last functional state. Thus my site is operational, but I can not upgrade from 4.1.1

Do I start a new thread, or continue troubleshooting through this one?

Hi Gofe,

Yupp I tried that too. No difference.

Yes, it is 31532 and wp version is 4.2 even after restoring my backup to before the update. Changing it makes no difference though

Hi Marko,

No, I didn’t use click&build. I’m using free mode.

None of those solutions work, I have tried changing the version in version.php. renaming all plugins to .hold. same with themes. No difference.

If I click “update wordpress database” my site gets garbled up and all pages become posts. If I restore latest backup, site is normal for viewing but back to “Database update required” when trying to access wp-admin.

Please help! I’m going nuts.

Same thing happened when updating to 4.1.2 My host, 1and1 reverted back for me and suggested I skip 4.1.2 and wait for 4.2

What can I do?

My hosting provider (1&1) managed to repair the database and revert back to 4.1.1. They also advised me to avoid 4.1.2 and rather wait for 4.1.

I won’t ever be updating in a hurry again but rather every time there’s an update, I will first check here to see what kinda’ success rates people are having.

I would really prefer not to have to attempt that. My host is looking into if they can fix it for me. Fingers crossed.

It just got worse. I attempted to re-install 4.1.2 Now my site is gone. When i Attempt to view it:

The website cannot display the page

HTTP 500

When I attemptt to log in to admin:
One or more database tables are unavailable. The database may need to be repaired.

I tried repairing. Made no difference…
