Hello,
this bug happened since i tried to auto-update my wordpress from version 3.0.5 (i think) to the next one (3.1), it failed and the yellow info bar appeared on my dashboard, but i cant turn it off even though i successfully then updated my wordpress through uploading files with ftp.
I updated my wordpress then two times but it just still appears. Is there any way to get rid of it?
here is a picture

Visit domain.com/wp-admin/update-core.php and press check-again
See if that doesn't kick its pants.

doesn't kick anything :) it just gives me the update page but nothing changes, dashboard as before..
Try:
- switching to the Twenty Ten theme by renaming your current theme's folder in wp-content/themes using FTP or whatever file management application your host provides.
- resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin.
- re-uploading all files & folders - except the wp-content folder - from a fresh download of WordPress.
- re-running the upgrade manually using wp-admin/upgrade.php.

i dont see the point why switching themes would help it in any way if wodpress dashboard does use its own theme.
- resetting does not help
- fresh download has been done
- re-running is on the plan
anyway i hope that some developer sees this and add an function that will check for current version if upgrade is selected, so when people try to "update" it checks the version and if the version is already installed it will deactivate the yellow bar if it is activated
Because there are functions called by your THEME that can affect the back end of WordPress, much like plugins, and if you don't at least ATTEMPT it with your theme switched, then you're ignoring a common and often valid possibility.
So please, listen to the advice of the very wise Esmi :)
After you've done that, try pressing the force reapply upgrade button from that upgrade-core page I sent you to. It may kick the DB. And make sure you don't have a .maintenance file sitting out there, though IIRC as of 3.1 it alerts you to that....

Hello,
sorry, i completely forgot about it. So the theme switching did not help. I guess there must be some parameter in the database where it says something like UpdateFailedDialog = true; but i cant find it anywhere.
Maybe you know better.
Thank you
