   I've got the same thing.

   Site address gives me the normal front page, but if I use "http://www.blogaddress.com/foobar" which isn't actual content, instead of the themes 404 page, I get every "page" on the site as one long run-on page.

   I've deleted and reinstalled, I've disabled all plug ins, changed to the default theme - none of these things have worked.

   The only thing that does stop it is changing your permalinks to the default.

   Did you forget to update or upload all the files in the main blog folder? Like wp-login.php or wp-register.php?

   I have the same problem with 404 pages as yorokobi.

   I've also tried disabling all the plugins and whatnot, but haven't been able to resolve this. I use the "day and name" permalinks.

   This is a fresh WP 2.5 installation.

   Ok, so now I solved it by choosing the Custom Structure for permalinks and putting just /%postname%/ there. Then it displays the error page when you go to a page that doesn't exist.

   However, now obviously the blog entry permalinks don't have the year, monthnum and day. For example, a post named "Test" is now http://www.example.com/test instead of http://www.example.com/2008/03/30/test

   If someone manages to solve this without having to remove the year, month and day, please, let us know.

   Funnily enough, it seems to be working now with the "Day and name" option! And now I know why it didn't work earlier: if you haven't chosen a posts page in the "Settings >> Reading" section, it displays all the pages on one page instead of the 404 page. When you choose a posts page from the dropdown menu in "Settings >> Reading", the error pages start to work properly.

   However, it's a bit annoying to have a page for the posts if you currently don't need a blog, but at least the error page works now.

   I am having the same problem of all the post and page links refreshing the index page rather than going to the links. I am still using 2.3.3, so I do not believe this is a 2.5 upgrade-related issue. I tried changing the Custom Structure for permalinks, but that did not work for me.

   Any help would be greatly appreciated!

   I can't even get into dashboard to make any changes or adjustments. Any thoughts??

   How can I get in to change the Custom Structure?
