I would also like to know how to remove this “docs.php” and what is causing it.
It returns almost immediately if I delete it.
I do not have Jetpack, so I don’t believe it is related.
Thank you!
I believe your WordPress memory limit is too low to update the DB.
I ran into the same exact problem, and found a solution on this page: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-update-required-4
edit:
wp-includes/default-constants.php
line 23:
define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’40M’);
temporarily change to 40M to 128M
It appears that you are using the Ginger browser plugin. You will need to turn it off. For some reason it adds those spans when it runs its grammar check in WordPress.
