    I talked with my tech support and they identified the problem as being that the size of the file being processed during the upgrade is too big and is creating a php-fatal error. Are they full of it? Wrong? Or do I need to have them set it to allow a one time big assed file process during upgrade? Any help would be a lifesaver.

    I would guess it’s a problem with the host, I haven’t heard of upgrades crashing like that. You may want to consider a different host.

    Here’s another of the things I don’t get though. This morning, I restored WordPress 1.2.2 and everything worked just fine. Could it be that all I have to ask them to do is to allow the upgrade process to work (raise the file size minimum temporarily), and then WordPress 1.5 will hum along at its space saving best after that?

    Another thing. 90 percent of the upgrade has to have worked when I run it though. I can go to wp-admin and everything’s there. All my old posts, all of the comments to those posts, and every single option is not only there but works. The only thing that hasn’t happened is that the index.php page hasn’t been built. Or am I wrong that is actually the 90 percent of the upgrade that hasn’t happened yet?

    BTW, the host is Fat Cow and I’ve had nothing but good luck with them over the past year and a half or so.
