3.2 Upgrade – Database Update Failure
-
I tried to do the upgrade to Version 3.2 for my domain this morning.
The upgrade appeared to be successful. I was then presented with the notice:
“Database Update Required
WordPress has been updated! Before we send you on your way, we have to update your database to the newest version.”I clicked the “Update WordPress Database” button and very soon after got this error message: “ERROR: WordPress 3.2 requires MySQL 5.0 or higher”.
I checked my host server and found it is running these versions
PHP Version 5.2.6-1+lenny9
and
MySQL Version 5.0.51a
which both appear to meet the upgrade requirements.My website is still working (as far as I can tell with the checking I have done so far) but I have no access to the Dashboard because it always brings up the “Database Update Required” notice (and the update always fails as noted above).
At this stage, I don’t know if my website is running 3.1.4, or 3.2, or something in between.
Any assistance to get back into my Dashboard, and complete the upgrade as required, will be greatly appreciated. If I need to disable plug-ins first, how do I do this without Dashboard access?
