    I just used the auto upgrade for 2.8.4, and ran into some problems.

    1. I can’t seem to log out from the admin panel, I get an error saying “You are attempting to log out of scoute. Please try again.”

    2. unable to view private posts even though logged in as the only user, admin. when I go the adress of a privately published post, it goes to the blog index with “page not found” in the page title.

    3. When editing a post, cannot preview any posts. when I click the Preview or Preview Changes button, I get an error saying “You do not have permission to preview drafts.” this happens in all posts – drafts, privately published and public posts.

    this is what I have encountered so far, where should I start trouble shooting?

    I might’ve pinpointed the trouble, my site URL has always been without www, like http://site.com.

    this is how the blog URL has also been set up in the settings, now I randomly tried switching it to http://www.site.com, and whaddaya know, everything works now.

    tried taking www out again, and the problems are back. I assume the url is logged somewhere in the wrong way, but where? I wish to keep using the URL without the www, so would need it to work that way.

    seems like I managed to fix it.

    I went through everything listed here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL

    even though the URL seemed to be entered everywhere the correct way, entering the appropriate lines to wp-congif and logging in and out through wp-login.php seemed to make everything function normally.
