    While updating to the latest wordpress, my installation froze. Now my site permanently says “Briefly unavailable for scheduled maintenance. Check back in a minute.”

    What can I do to troubleshoot and repair?

    FTP into your site (or use whatever file management application your host provides) and delete the .maintenance file in your WordPress folder.

    Then try:
    – switching to the Twenty Ten theme by renaming your current theme’s folder in wp-content/themes using FTP or whatever file management application your host provides.

    – resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin.

    – re-running the upgrade manually using /wp-admin/upgrade.php.
