Also – I had to manually upgrade because the autoupgrade never works…
Try reuploading new copies of the WP files and folders to upgrade again. Some must not have completely uploaded.
But don’t copy over wp-content if you have a custom theme.
I re-uploaded…still getting the same errors. My database is MySQL5.0.
When I go to /wp-login.php I get the error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: is_admin() in /homepages/40/d205009528/htdocs/BeyondSurrendered/wp-includes/vars.php on line 16
When I go to /wp-admin/upgrade.php like it says in the installation instructions I get the same error.
It now says in mysqul databases that the one for my current site is not available.
Anyone have any idea?

For 1and1 you need to add this to the top of your .htaccess file with a plain text editor
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
Forgive my complete and utter ignorance – but is the .htaccess file in the wordpress files or in part of my web server?
Thanks for your help so far!

It seems it’s on 1and1 through apache? Am I understanding this correctly? Forgive my ignorance – I’m building this site on my own since my webmaster abandoned me on my last site.

is that possible different view of dashboard between the chrome browser and mozilla firefox ? i don’t understand why my post menu dashboard is unseen at the chrome browser and shown up at firefox.
@rebakahblam — your .htaccess file is the same directory as your WordPress install.
@midjin: start a new thread with your problem.
@rebakahblam: How are you uploading the WordPress files? With FTP? Filezilla? You have to be absolutely sure you are uploading them in the right place:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Uploading_WordPress_to_a_remote_host
I’m using filezilla. Is .htaccess in a sub folder of the install? I tried searching in the folder and didn’t find it. I’ll look again after this board meeting.
.htaccess is – or should be – at the same level of wp-config, wp-content, etc.
Do you know if you are on Windows or Linux hosting?
Oh, and if you haven’t changed Permalinks from Default (see Settings -> Permalinks) you probably won’t have an .htaccess file.
Chris, Good point…. Might have to create the file, but you can create a new file in FileZilla, just be sure there’s a “dot” in front of the file name.
But if you’re on Windows hosting, the existence of an .htaccess file depends on if 1and1 has .htaccess implemented for WIndows.
I have the basic package with linux hosting. I searched the wordpress installation file and did not find a .htaccess file. I guess I have to create it then? How can I go about doing this?
Thanks again for all of your help so far – I really appreciate it!

Also – I have changed permalinks already – thanks though Chris_K
