I try to upgrade to 2.0.4 but I get this message when I run upgrade.php:
Warning: main(/home/sites/site173/web/weblog/wp-includes/wp-db.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/sites/site173/web/weblog/wp-settings.php on line 72
Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/sites/site173/web/weblog/wp-includes/wp-db.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php') in /home/sites/site173/web/weblog/wp-settings.php on line 72
I followed the instructions, uploaded in ASCII - but no success.
This WP is upgraded from B2 and I think it was this blog I manually had to add some tables in the database, because otherwise the upgrade from B2 wasn't working. So I figure I have to make some changes again, but ca'nt figure out yet wat's the problem. Last time I got clear messages about not able to find the specific tables.
I completely removed everything from the server, including all files link wp-config and freshly installed the new version en uploaded the wp-config back. It worked, I had my blog back. Going to the adminsection, I got the message to upgrade, which I did and everything is still working. Put my theme back, no problem
Looks like some file(s) didn't make it intact on the first install.
Please mark this resolved?

I had an error on following the simplified instructions for an upgrade from 2.0.3. See this page: http://www.ferocecoaching.com/thebridge/
Very bad news. If only things were as simple as the instructions say. Now I, not at all technical, have a broken blog.
I'd appreciate help. I'd even pay for it (I've got other blog work to be done too, like making my Feedburner feed work).

Following up on my email . . . actually, I can see a wp-config file (and a sample config file) in my FTP. Does that not mean it's there?
I wondered if I should reinstall my blog through my web host's Fantastico?
