Other problems and solutions I have tried:
- In addition to not being able to access the options-permalink.php file, I am also encountering a 404 page when I try to bulk activate or deactivate plug-ins.
- Two of my plug-ins have updates available and neither of them will update and hang at the unpacking phase.
- I was already using WordPress 3.8.1, but tried to update WordPress in case it was corrupted and it hung during the unpacking phase just like the plug-ins did.
- To resolve these issues I have:
- Turned off the plugins (which I had to do manually through PhpMyAdmin)
- Switching to basic theme
- I manually updated WordPress using the instructions here.
- I am gettint 500 Internal Server Errors off any secondary pages on the site. I have traced this to w3 Total Cache. However, deactivating it doesn’t fix any of my other issues.
Even after all of this, I am still having the same problem. None of the plugins will upgrade and neither will WordPress and I am still getting 404 errors when I try to go to options-permalink.php from the WordPress dashboard.
