shame

Well I found time to do the upgrade again, ready to try editing the file, only to find that the site seems to be working normally now.

The only thing I did differently was re-download wordpress.

Maybe the previous download was corrupt or something?

Well I made copies of the wp-content/plugins and wp-content/themes folders and deleted them both then copied over the folders from the worpress 2.5.1 tarball.

So I have no manually installed plugins or themes, just the wordpress default stuff and the problem is still there.

For reference, this is what comes up on the page when it fails: [code] ://[^/]+|i', '', get_option('siteurl') . '/' ) ); /** * It is possible to define this in wp-config.php * @since 2.0.0 */ if ( !defined('COOKIE_DOMAIN') ) define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', false); /** * It is possible to define this in wp-config.php * @since 2.5.0 */ if ( !defined( 'AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL' ) ) define( 'AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL', 60 ); require (ABSPATH .

I’ve no idea what to do at this point except start my site up from scratch.

Actually, it’s getting more wierd now.

Sometimes the site is showing normally, then it suddenly fails and spouts a load of jargon at me.
