    I would be most obliged to ANYONE who helps me out here…
    I installed wordpress 2.0.2 some months ago, and now tried to upgrade wordpress for the first time to 2.0.3
    I followed the instructions word by word, DID NOT delete the wp-contents folder and wp-config.php file, and deleted the other older ones and uploaded the 2.0.3 files.
    Now the instructions told me to log in as admin to my site, and i’ll see an upgrade link and I should just follow the instructions there.
    Now when I log in or try to do anything, I get this message:

    Warning: main(/home2/sumedhp/public_html/blog/wp-settings.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home2/sumedhp/public_html/blog/wp-config.php on line 20

    Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required ‘/home2/sumedhp/public_html/blog/wp-settings.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home2/sumedhp/public_html/blog/wp-config.php on line 20

    I checked the wp-config.php file [which, by the way, I hadn’t touched or deleted, and it is showing me that its empty [0 KB].

    I am a computer programmer but know very little about php.I have no clue what to do, as I have around 300 posts in my blog, and I would be terribly upset if they got deleted!

    PLEASE PLEASE help me out soon…
    Thank you.

    Like this?: http://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrading_WordPress

    Probably have to ‘rebuild’ wp-config.php if you don’t have a backup. Re-upload any 0-byte files. You didn’t mention running upgrade.php…

    That error says wp-settings.php is not in the /blog/ directory. Is it?

    Thank you BOTH of you, ever so much.

    I CANNOT TELL HOW VERY GREATFULL I AM INDEED.Thank you very very much.

    I saw carefully, the wp-settings.php file that should have been there was strangely named as wp-settings.php.part so I delted it and re uploaded that.And also re uploaded the wp-config file from the 2.0.2 setup.

    And it automatically upgraded by database when I went to /blog and clicked on upgrade.

    THANKS ALOT!!
