• Hello guys
    I have a problem on the upgrade from wpmu 2.9.2 to 3.0.5
    Following the guides, I’ve just to run the automatic update, update the htaccess file and update the blog network.
    The update itself does not report any error.
    But what I’ve found is whenever I create a new blog (site) wp says correctly site added, but the only thing updated is a main site db table. Any site-specific table is created.
    Furthermore, on the admin page, the link I have as backend admin page is not the one I’m expecting but the main blog one
    e.g
    main site backend: http://blog.mainsite.org/wp-admin/
    site created “newsite”
    site backend page: http://blog.mainsite.org/wp-admin/
    and I expect
    http://blog.mainsite.org/newsite/wp-admin/

    Do you have any suggestion for something I may double check looking for what’s wrong?

    Thanks, Yuri
    PS:
    the
    define(‘WP_ALLOW_REPAIR’, true);
    has been already test without success.
    it returns several lines like “wp_<blogid>_<tablename> is missing”

    Did you try turning off all plugins and then adding a site?

    I’ve just to run the automatic update

    Did the same on one test install, and resolved it by deactivating plugins, changed theme to twentyten, re-uploaded WP files via FTP, re-run Settings > Permalink, then created a new blog (subdomain structure).

    The auto-update only worked at the 3.0 version. Somewhere in the minor version it got borked.

    Re-do it manually.

    you’ve got htaccess rules you need to change anyway.

    Hello guys,
    it is not working yet.
    This is what I’ve done:
    – trying update using latest release (3.0.5) and following what is written in the page linked by Andrea_r
    same behavior as previous tests

    – trying a two steps update, from 2.9.2 to 3.0 and then 3.0.5
    even with 3.0 I got the same error.
    I’m gonna trying a fresh install of 2.9.2 mu and then upgrade
    tks, Yuri

    You’re not changing your config file are you?

    Not modified.
    After the upgrade I had to modify just the rewrites and remove the blogs.php file
