In reply to: WP 3 installed, DB updated, no plugins = blank wp-admin screenHA! No need.
I found a MySQL primer, browsed around in phpMyAdmin and discovered that the ID fields in the comments and posts databases did not have the “extra” set to “auto-increment.” That’s why it kept showing post = 0. My problems are solved!
Thanks again for all of your help.

In reply to: WP 3 installed, DB updated, no plugins = blank wp-admin screenWouldn’t I need another domain name to set up another “test” blog?

In reply to: WP 3 installed, DB updated, no plugins = blank wp-admin screenSorry, but I do mind. If it works, then what would that prove? Explain how would setting up a test blog on the same web host help to narrow down the problem on the existing blog? If you can make a good case for it, then maybe I’ll go through that hassle.

In reply to: WP 3 installed, DB updated, no plugins = blank wp-admin screenI have no active plugins and I still can’t write drafts or posts, I can’t edit the existing (pre-upgrade) draft, nor can I leave/edit comments on published posts.
I suspect that the(se) problem(s) is/are in the database. When I hover over the pre-upgrade draft, the footer of my browser says the link leads to post zero, even though my next post number should be much higher than that. If I click it, then I just get the page that shows a list of published posts, probably because the database can’t find a post zero.
My web host is aplus.net.

In reply to: WP 3 installed, DB updated, no plugins = blank wp-admin screenWell, “seems to be working” insofar as the wp-admin page isn’t blank…
However, I can’t write a post (which is what motivated me to upgrade to WP3), I can’t make a new draft, nor can I edit a draft left over from before the upgrade. I’ll dive into that problem tomorrow…

In reply to: WP 3 installed, DB updated, no plugins = blank wp-admin screenWhew. That takes forever! However…
It seems to be working now. Thanks so much for your help.

In reply to: WP 3 installed, DB updated, no plugins = blank wp-admin screenSigh.
That will have to wait until after work. Uploading it file-by-file takes a long time. I only hope that doing that doesn’t spawn another batch of “owner” issues that require my webhost to resolve…

In reply to: WP 3 installed, DB updated, no plugins = blank wp-admin screenUsing phpMyAdmin to edit active_plugins to a:0:{} did not resolve the issue. Blog will load, but wp-admin still a blank screen.
Now what?
I do appreciate your patience!

In reply to: WP 3 installed, DB updated, no plugins = blank wp-admin screenOkay, I got the ownership issue resolved by my webhost.
When I rename the other themes to force it to the twentyten theme I still get the blank wp-admin screen. Worse, forcing it to the twentyten theme also makes the BLOG ITSELF go blank.
As an experiment, I renamed twentyten to twentyten-broken and undid the -broken name change on classic (which was the theme I had been using). The blog loads again, but wp-admin is still blank.
What do you suggest I do next?

In reply to: WP 3 installed, DB updated, no plugins = blank wp-admin screenOh, and when I rename the other themes, what sort of name must I give them to ensure they are bypassed in favor of twentyen?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: WP 3 installed, DB updated, no plugins = blank wp-admin screenFYI, one other thing that I tried that didn’t resolve the problem was using phpmyadmin to change the db_version to 15260.
I will try your suggestion, but I noticed that in doing a ls -l of the themes directory everything has a group of “web” except for index.php and twentyten, which are assigned to group “nobody.” What makes that happen? How do I fix that? I reckon I don’t want to force it twentyten without resolving that issue first…
Duh, I found the “dashboard” and I am using version 2.6.3 of WP. The “classic” theme and the only plug-in active is Akismet.
