I recently upgraded to 2.2, and everything worked perfectly for a while. Then I tried to edit a post containing an Event Calender plugin date, altering the date, which caused problems to begin. All my site pages - home, admin, forum, were completely blank. Could not access anything.
So I deleted the plugins I thought might cause problems, Event Calender, then everything else, but nothing changed - still just blank pages.
I even manually typed in the URL for upgrade.php, hoping this might kickstart everything, but it just prompted for a download rather than running the script.
I deleted the .htaccess file hoping that might do something, but no.
The database is still sitting there, so I don't think there's anything wrong with the database, unless I have to manually tweak something in there?
I even tried reverting to 2.1.3 just in case there was a serious problem using 2.2.
My server has the required versions of php and mysql to run 2.2, so I don't think that's the problem.
Please, I'm absolutely stuck now on what to do, so I'd really appreciate any help on how to get my site back. I had just managed to get everything running just the way I wanted, too.
I might just use fantastico to reinstall an older wordpress version, then import the tables from my latest database, and see if that works.
I was using pretty permalinks - could that be causing problems if not implemented in my .htaccess file? Here's what it currently reads:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
