However, last December, when I installed this, instead of appearing on the root site, dscomic.com, the blog appears at <a href="http://www.dscomic.com/wordpress-2.6.3/wordpress/" rel="nofollow">http://www.dscomic.com/wordpress-2.6.3/wordpress/</a><br /> So I get around this by doing a 301 redirect from dscomic.com to <a href="http://www.dscomic.com/wordpress-2.6.3/wordpress/." rel="nofollow">http://www.dscomic.com/wordpress-2.6.3/wordpress/.</a> It's a mess.</p> <p>Anyhow, what I'd like to do is:<br /> 1) upgrade to the newest Wordpress,<br /> 2) AND somehow fix this so that the blog appears at the root directory (dscomic.com ) this time,<br /> 3) AND still be able to link to those old posts in the <a href="http://www.dscomic.com/wordpress-2.6.3/wordpress/" rel="nofollow">http://www.dscomic.com/wordpress-2.6.3/wordpress/</a> directory.</p> <p>Whats the best approach to doing the three things above?</p> <p>Thanks </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/218335#post-1137524 Tue, 14 Jul 2009 13:05:28 +0000 dr.arief 1137524@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I tried both options from <strong>gymgangsta</strong> and <strong>jeanlucs</strong>, but still the comments are not working.

I've tried using '/wp-admin/upgrade.php' not but all I get is:</p> <p>"<strong>No Upgrade Required</p> <p>Your WordPress database is already up-to-date!</strong>"</p> <p>Once again, I'm now stuck with the loop. I tried re-uploading my files and using the upgrade.php link again but I get the same up-to-date page.</p> <p>Am I screwed?... </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/224891#post-931560 Sat, 20 Dec 2008 01:14:04 +0000 meesha 931560@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I'm still confused about what you are doing.</p> <p>I'm assuming you are upgrading from 2.6.3 to 2.7. Are you running your WP from your root directory or from a "wordpress (or other named) directory" in your root? </p> <p>If from the root, and you ftp all the new 2.7 files to your server and overwrite the old 2.6.3 files, you wouldn't do an install, that is for only first time use, you would do an upgrade. ../wp-admin/upgrade.php.</p> <p>If you are running from a "wordpress directory" in your root, make a new folder on your computer, name it "wordpress2 (or other named)", load all the new 2.7 files into it. Then add all your WP-Content files, theme, plugins, uploads, plus your old config file and upload to server. Then switch names of the folders on the server so the newly uploaded folder in now just "wordpress (or other named)". Then go to ../wp-admin/upgrade.php. and all should be fine. I use this method so if I screw something up I can just switch folder names and be back to the previous version. Going to ../wp-admin/upgrade.php then will downgrade your database to the older version as well. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/218335#post-930168 Thu, 18 Dec 2008 20:14:46 +0000 gymgangsta 930168@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>this worked for me: Thanks to Pavlos:<br /> <a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/205781"></p> <p>1) You must have access to use SQL commands on your database, like for example with phpMyAdmin.<br /> 2) Select your WP database and click on the SQL tab.<br /> 3) Paste and run the following SQL command.</p> <p><strong>UPDATE wp_posts SET comment_status = 'open', ping_status = 'open' WHERE comment_status = 'closed';</strong></a> </p>
