Download WordPress again and delete then replace your copies of the /wp-admin/ and /wp-includes/ directories with fresh copies from the download.
i already did that before i had 2.9.2 i switched to ver 3.0
Try it again. There could have been something wrong with the files that were previously uploaded.
no my next attempt failed too 🙁 i re uploaded the wp-admin and wp-includes files but same problem again
Well, I suppose it could be a memory issue (sometimes it doesn’t report the typical error message).
First, try installing the Memory Bump plugin.
If that doesn’t work, here are four ways to increase PHP’s memory allocation:
1. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini
If your line shows 32M try 64M:
memory_limit = 64M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (64MB)
2. If you don't have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:
php_value memory_limit 64M
3. Try adding this line to your wp-config.php file:
Increasing memory allocated to PHP
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');
4. Talk to your host.
