Please tell me that you made a database backup before upgrading. You attempted far too big an upgrade in a single step and may now have trashed your database. Ideally, this kind of major upgrade (ie anything beyond 2 versions back) need a number of smaller upgrade steps as outlined in Upgrading_WordPress_Extended.
Hello
I followed all the processes of this link. And each update, I saved all the files and all the DB.
The problem is that updates are over 10, and I do not know exactly where the comments started giving error.
Now changing some tags in the related files, is that I noticed that the comments made on posts appear in comments made on pages too …
What a mess …
Thanks anyway 😛
I think the best things you can do is roll back to WP 2.7 by uploading a copy of the 2.7 core files and restoring your original database backup. Then carry out the manual upgrade steps as described in Upgrading_WordPress_Extended but, this time, check the site and carry out a fresh database backup after each upgrade. Also, I’d suggest switching to the default theme and deactivating all plugins before starting any upgrades.

Hello
After upgrading the system 2.7 to 3.3.2 (running all the steps in Codex), our website just stopped working comments …
Well .. in fact, they work. Going for approval, but instead of staying in the same post (eg, post_id = 10), you click on submit comments, and it loads the next page (example post_id = 11, and if there is to this page, it loads the next database). If you return to the previous page … the comment is there!!
Please, how can I fix it?
Thanks
