 * I also tried the automatic install from the admin portal and my site seemed to
   go flawlessly… then all I get (no matter whether I try to go to my base page 
   or admin page):

 * I’m not sure if it is related, but I’ve been having problems with Atom feeds 
   and punctuation in the title of a post. I never had the Atom feed totally borked
   until after the upgrade to WordPress 2.2. Prior, if I had an apostrophe in a 
   title, the feed would have some odd characters where the apostrophe was supposed
   to be, but after the upgrade, I couldn’t get any feedreader to connect. I went
   through [http://www.feedvalidator.org](http://www.feedvalidator.org) and found
   that the apostrophe was being replaced by the string “%e2%80%99”. FeedValidator
   stated that it SHOULD be “%E2%80%99”. I had to go into the actual MySQL database
   to change this. The difference being uppercase versus lowercase letters. I had
   another one that had the string “%e2%80%a6” when it should have been “%E2%80%
   A6”. It was a pain to change it the way I did. After doing so, I was able to 
   load my feeds and it checked out fine. Why are these characters being coded incorrectly?
   In case it matters, my encoding is set to UTF-8.

 * I’ve followed all the instructions to upgrade from 2.0.1 to 2.0.2 and something
   is FUBAR. I get a bunch of errors on the screen… PHP errors. How important is
   it to upgrade? I’m debating to ignore the upgrade, since it appears to work fine
   as is. They say it is a security upgrade, what issues are there?
