 * Hi,
    I tried upgrading my site to 3.5.2 but the automated upgrade failed. My 
   wp-admin was down with a Error 500 message. I tried manual upgrade and backup
   restore through FTP and nothing works. My site is up and running but I can’t 
   access the admin area. On my server I found an error log with the following message:
 * [25-Jun-2013 06:57:02] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /
   home3/user/public_html/domain/wp-includes/class-simplepie.php on line 1439
 * Does someone here have a solution for this issue? I want to avoid re-installing
   as I had a very customized theme and I´m not a programmer…
 * Thanks

 * I forgot something, I also found this error message in the log:
 * [25-Jun-2013 09:48:31] PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes

 * Try [increasing the memory available to PHP](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/253495#post-1017842).

 * Thanks, I included the line in the Wp-config (64 did not work, had to use 128
   instead).
 * Now my site is up and running.
 * Thanks
