 * Whenever I try to publish or save a post or a page, I get this error:
 * Fatal error: Cannot use object of type WP_Error as array in /chroot/home/sporkfas/
   sporkfashion.com/html/wp-includes/taxonomy.php on line 1010
 * I had no problems for a few days after upgrading to 2.3.1. This seems to have
   happened very suddenly. I have tried turning off plugins, deleting them all together,
   re-installing 2.3.1, then going back to 2.3, and nothing seems to help.
 * I noticed a few people seem to be having this problem, but have yet to see a 
   solution.

 * I got the same problem yesterday because of a reinstallation.
    I exported data
   with built-in wp feature. Backed up mysql tables. Wiped out the server folder.
   Reinstalled another clean wordpress (the version was the same). Imported back
   my data with wp feature. And I lost all my categories and tags (that was not 
   a problem).
 * After this I got that error when saving pages/articles and trying to upload data.
 * It simply solved itself by publishing a post with a temp category and a temp 
   tag.
 * I hope this helps.
