  • Thank you Andrea. I’ll try it out as soon as I have time and see what happens.

    You’ve actually solved a lot of problems over the years for me and didn’t even know it. I’ve been a lurker here for years, but I didn’t see the need to post until now because I had exhausted all of my resources.

    Again, thank you soooooooo much. You’re a real gem.

    I too am having the same problem, and so I’ll post my experience. Maybe then we can find a way to solve this.

    I upgraded to 3.1.1. I got the following message in the admin panel:

    Thank you for Updating! Please visit the Update Network page to update all your sites.

    Where it says “Update Network,” I clicked the link. It never loads the network admin panel. It just hangs up. Eventually, I get the following message:

    Error establishing a database connection
    This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host’s database server is down.

    •Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
    •Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
    •Are you sure that the database server is running?
    If you’re unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host. If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums.

    I am using IE8 running on Windows XP. My backup browser is Google Chrome. When I try to update in Google Chrome, it’s telling me that I’m getting too many redirects.

    I checked to see if all the tables are there (it looks like it), I optimized the database because I thought that was the problem, and I disabled all of the plugins to see if that was a problem. (I had to rename the plugins folder since I can’t access network admin).

    My sites are all loading, and they look fine. The problem is that if I need to update anything on the network, I can’t, short of uploading through FTP.

    I’m open to any and all suggestions. Thanks.
