connection reset wordpress 4.0
-
Yesterday, I was working on a site in version 3.9.2. The site is located on my localhost(wampserver)… everything was perfect… i could edit everything… upload everything… all was perfect… TODAY I installed wordpress 4.0 and now i get “connection was reset” and “Server not found, can’t find the server at http://www.localhost.com.” on 90% of all my site… i don’t know what is the problem because everything was perfect on WP 3.9.2
some of my local server’s specs are:
wampserver 2.2
Php: 5.4.3
apache: 2.4.2
SQL: 5.5.24i’d really appreciate some help

Are you sure your site is at http://www.localhost.com and not just http://localhost ?
that’s one of the strange things that happened… now it changes automatically to http://www.localhost.com instead of http://localhost wich is the correct location… i’ve checked the options inside the wordpress and all of them points correctly to http://localhost… y try to insert the correct url manually into the browser and it changes it back…. also, i’ve cleared my cookies and cache and tried to open it in different browsers and i still get the same response…. 🙁
Have you anything in your .htaccess?
the only thing written in the .htaccess is this:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /dellamare/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /dellamare/index.php [L]
</IfModule># END WordPress
on 90% of all my site.
Wait, what DOES work, then?
the only thing that I can view correctly is the contact page but crearly i have to write the complete url to be able to see it… http://localhost/miwpsyte/contact/
The exact same thing happen to me. Was working on my site perfectly fine yasterday.
Updated to 4.0 and now all the sudden Connection reset.
I also get redirected to http://www.localhost.com/sitename
Since you’re 14 hours ahead of me, did you solve this problem?

Please Help Me!
@wpprakash and @zamster100, Can you guys open a new thread, http://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting#postform
It’s been 4 days and I haven’t got answer to my problem….. I still get the “connection reset” message and also the “www.localhost.com” appears from time to time…. so, i’m guessing that the 4.0 version version update is not a good idea……. i’ll wait a little longer…
I fixed my issue by reverting back to 3.9.2.
When you updated to wordpress, wordpress updates all the files in your intallation folder. In my case, my site is installed on a wamp folder under /www.
In this folder I have everything I need for my site. However, the only files that get updated specifically for my installation are everything in the:
wp-contents, .htaccess, wp-config.php.
The goal is to delete all the wordpress 4.0 files and replace them with 3.9.2.
FIRST BACK UP YOUR WWW folder. COPY and paste it into another location for safety. Also, goto your myPHPadmin and back up your database by exporting it.
Now you want to delete everything except the 3 files I listed above. At this point you should only have 3 files in your www folder or your installation folder. these are:
wp-contents – this is a folder which contains all your themes and files
.htaccess – This is a file
wp-config.php -This is a fileNow you are ready to download wordpress 3.9.2 and copy paste the files into your www folder.
What you can do, is download wordpress 3.9.2 from wordpress archive which you can do here: http://wordpress.org/wordpress-3.9.2.zip
Unzip it.
In the unziped file you will see all the wordpress documents. 3 folders and a bunch of other files.
In this folder delete wp-contents folder. Because this an empty wordpress installation and you dont need this.
Copy everything else that is left into your www folder or your site folder.
Once you do the above, when you goto your localhost it should say your database needs updating, click update which takes like 2 seconds. The reason it asks for updating is because your phpdatabase was updated to wodpress 4. But since you removed wordpress 4 files and replaced them with 3.9.2 your database wants to correct this as well.
when you do the above everything should work. I know the above looks complicated but all you’re really doing is deleting wordpress 4 and replacing it with 3.9.2 and that’s. Hope that helps.
I run about 20 sites on WordPress and I’ve got the same problem on all of them.
Try to update a plugin and all i see is:The connection was reset
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.Come on WP, where’s the hotfix??
I get the same error when trying to update plugins. As a test, I tried to click the “Reinstall Now” button to reinstall WordPress and I get the same error which makes me believe that I won’t be able to update WordPress when the next version is released until I find a solution to this problem.
well…. it looks that this is one of the unresolved misteries of wordpress… i still have the problem and still i’m waiting for an answer… i still have the hope to get one….
I’ve run in to this problem as well! I’ll add my “bump” to this thread.
