# 3.5.2 Update Issues

 *  Resolved [Cloudrunner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cloudrunner/)
 * (@cloudrunner)
 * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/352-update-issues/)
 * I logged on to [http://dkdiaries.com/wp-admin](http://dkdiaries.com/wp-admin).
 * I did the update and got the message:
 * _“Database Update Required_
 * WordPress has been updated! before we send you on your way, we have to update
   your database to the newest version.
 * The update process process may take a little while, so please be patient.”
 * I clicked the button that says “Update WordPress Database” and was sent to a 
   page that bears only the WordPress logo. There’s no progress bar, nothing that
   indicates that any action is taking place.
 * I have done this repeatedly along with clearing my Mozilla Firefox browser history,
   but I find myself always getting stuck on the WordPress logo page.
 * I can’t post or even go to the admin page. Please help.

 * Same exact problem here. upgraded a couple sites and all fine except one failed
   with this exact issue. I’m still investigating it, I’ll post back here if I figure
   it out.

 * Right after I posted that I tried increasing WP_MEMORY_LIMIT in wp-config.php,
   and it upgraded fine.
 * Hope that helps you Cloudrunner.

 * [@wpyogi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpyogi/), I have yet to contact
   Bluehost about the issue.
 * [@nocabt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nocabt/), I followed your suggestion
   but it didn’t work for me.

 * My gut tells me it’s a memory issue still, I used:
 * `define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '128M');`
 * and you can increase PHP Memory Limit in .htaccess or local php.ini file (I think
   the latter on Bluehost as PHP is running as CGI?). Here are a couple help pages
   from bluehost:

 * Try replacing upgrade.php (after deleting it) from a fresh download of WordPress
   and try again.

 * #nocabt,
 * here’s what in my php.ini file:
 * max_execution_time = 30 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
    
   max_input_time = 60 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request
   data memory_limit = 128M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (16MB)

 * [@krishan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/krishan/), did what you told me
   to do and still the same issue. Just a [white page with only the WordPress logo](http://www.dkdiaries.com/wp-admin/upgrade.php?step=1&backto=%2Fwp-admin%2F).
 * I’ll check for any more tips and suggestions when it’s daylight. It’s 1:36 AM
   here and I really need to retire for the night. It’s been a frustrating day.

 * Have you verified those values are being applied by creating a simple PHP info
   page:
 * `<?php phpinfo(); ?>`
 * then making sure the local value column contains 128M for “memory_limit”?

 * I had exactly the same problem using
 * define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘128M’);
 * in my wp-config.php solve my problem.
 * Nothing else to add here, just wanted to back [@nocabt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nocabt/)

 * Well, guess what? I changed db_version in the wp_options table to “22442” (as
   suggested in other threads) and I can now access my admin page.
 * But now I have a new problem:
 * Tried to add a new post. Could write a title but not the body. Missing toolbars
   and such.
