    after upgraded to 2.6, i can't see the login page when i come to myblog.com/wp-admin. it turns blank. then i go to myblog.com/wp-login.php and i can see the login page. but after i log in, blank page again.

    in fact i always have problems everytime after i upgrade. each time when i go to my main page, i'll either see a blank page or get confusing codes (my blog is not english, using UTF-8 to view). so everytime i have to edit ep-config file, to remove the "utf-8" fr the line "define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf-8')" before i can see my blog's content again.

    so this time after upgrade i see nothing. then i do the same thing to the wp-config, it works and i can see my blog's content again, and yet this time the login page turns blank and i can't login.

    desparately need someone to help.

    my blog's url: http://blog.fishonthehill.com/

    I am having the same problem (get a blank page) after upgrading to 2.6. Removing a space at the end of wp-config file did not help. And using myblog.com/wp-login.php gets me a blank page also. Bummer.

    I find this may occurred when you have Alex King's Popularity Contest plugin active, try to delete this plugin.

    Same problem here!

    I disabled all plugins before I did the upgrade (from 2.5 to 2.6). the database upgraded fine, but any attempt to get to the admin section results in a white page with no source code at all.

    Login.php comes up, but then I get a blank screen again once I put my username and password in.

    I tried re-uploading all of the wp-admin files in case something didn't transfer right, but no luck so far.

    Making sure there were no spaces at the end of wp-config.php didn't solve it for me.

    Still awaiting a solution. :(

    No longer waiting... I'm blaming the WordPress Automatic Upgrade plugin. I removed that and things started working. Had to clear cookies, rebuild permalinks, activate necessary plugins, etc... but I'm back baby!

    I ran in to this same problem when I upgraded to 2.6.1 today and decided to migrate my wp-config settings into the new wp-config-sample.php and rename it to wp-config.php since I haven't done that in forever and there were some new settings that I didn't have.

    It broke my entire blog. More specifically, the line:
    define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');

    broke everything. After removing it things ran fine. I run MySQL 5.0.18 and PHP 5.2.4.

    Would someone be available to walk me trough these changes? I believe I did all changes to wp-config.php described above but still get a blank page. I can't even login to Dashboard.

    I was in the dreaded login loop - (login page kept refreshing and not forwarding to dashboard) - I read to delete the cookies and that solved my problem.

    I had the same problem and then deleted my plugins and it started working again. Then the blog wasn't showing up properly and I figured out that it was because of some extra code I added for one of the plugins to index.php. I deleted the code and it works fine now.
    Now I am going to copy back all of my plugins and activate them one by one to see which one was causing the problem.

    Thanks to the community for your help.

    This may be an old thread but I wanted to add my experience as well. I"m running WP 2.7.1 and got the same thing - tried to log in and got a blank page.

    After reading a few of the posts here, I FTP'd to my site and went to my plugins folder...I saw a plugin folder that was dated yesterday's date, so I just changed the name of the folder by adding "zzz" to the end.

    After doing this I was able to log in.

    I'm really not sure what happened.. I'm just glad to be back in.

    FYI - the plugin was WP-Polls which is an Ajax poolling plugin.
    (http://lesterchan.net/wordpress/readme/wp-polls.html)

    PLEASE NOTE: I'm not crapping on this guy's plugin... it's worked perfectly until now... Don't know what happened
