 * Hi Transversalys,
 * I have found the same problem – no ideal fix but I can at least get your admin
   back up (assuming you have enough access to your server?):
 * Step 1 create a folder to move somes file to
 * move the /plugins/w3-total-cache folder and all contents into the folder
 * move the following four files from the /wp-config/ folder:
 * advanced-cache.php
    db.php object-cache.php w3-total-cache-config.php
 * into the storage folder and you should be back up and running (without w3tc however)
 * I look forward to a more comprehensive fix from the development team.

 * Same error. It didn’t crash my admin, but I can’t activate the plugin (any attempt
   to do so results in fatal error). Please advise on a fix.
 * Thank you.

 * I have just discovered my RSS feeds ceased to be updated approx. the same time
   as I completed this update. Can anyone confirm if this might be due to the update
   or unrelated! Thanks.
