    Hi guys,

    I’ve just tried upgrading to 3.3.2 but it didn’t run properly, the site was previously at 3.3.1

    First I got the ‘site unavailable for maintenance please check back later’ message. I looked on here and it seemed the right thing to do was to delete or re-name the .maintenance file which I did (.maintenance.old) I then got the following error message.

    Fatal error: Class ‘wpdb’ not found in /home/lightnin/public_html/lnwp/wp-includes/load.php on line 338

    I renamed the .maintenance file back, but the error message above still persists.

    How to I get out of this? my site is now unavailable. I haven’t see any posts on here relating to these problems.

    Thanks

    Wayne

    Okay, the upgrade somehow over-wrote wp-db.php with blank file and then crashed.

    I downloaded 3.3.2 and up-zipped it. Copied across a clean version of wp-db.php and this has brought the site back up at version 3.3.1

    Dashboard reported ‘upgrade failed to complete’. So I re-ran the 3.3.2 upgrade and this time in installed okay.

    I have no idea why this happened, the upgrade was not obviously interupted, it just ceased with the maintenance message.

    Anyway this appears to have solved the issue.

    Moving my site caused the same problem. For some reason a blank file got uploaded. Re-uploading fixed this issue for me.
