 * I upgraded to 3.2. So far found 2 major bugs.
 * Now all the pop-ups at admin stopped working. For example, the edit links in 
   Publish box.
 * Clicking a tag gives no posts (i.e. URL [http://www.example.org/tags/mytag](http://www.example.org/tags/mytag)).
 * Did you guys test this at all before releasing?

 * How many others have been affected and what is WordPress doing to correct it?
   I am stuffed at the moment. Lots of suggestions but are any really working? An
   Email would be nice.

 * Attempted to upgrade from 3.1.4 to 3.2 and was told “Your server is running PHP
   version 5.0.4 but WordPress 3.2 requires at least 5.2.4”
 * I moved to a unix platform server which runs PHP 5.2.4 but now am unable to access
   the blog – I’m given a “Page Not Found” message.
 * Is there any way to repeat the upgrade so that I can access the blog pages?

    Have you tried:
 * – deactivating all plugins (yes, all) to see if this resolves the problem. If
   this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic
   plugin(s). Don’t forget the ones in mu-plugins. If you can’t get into your admin
   dashboard, try resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, 
   an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.
 * – switching to the Twenty Eleven theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.
 * > Did you guys test this at all before releasing?
 *  Actually there was a long beta period. I have had 3 sites running 3.2 for sometime
   with no problems.
 * Also check the sticky at the top of the page.

 * I have completely lost site of the entire blog immediately after upgrade.
    I 
   had the same problem with another site that I thought it was messed up from inside
   my cpanel/ host, but after I went to upgrade this other blog it did the exact
   same thing. Look [http://www.howtomakewebsitemoney.com/blog](http://www.howtomakewebsitemoney.com/blog)
   it is a white page. Nothing on it anymore with over 6,000 visitors a month, it
   does not look good.
 * I have 10 blogs that are in the same boat the above blog is one example that 
   I am freaking out about.
 * What should we do? I cannot even access my wp admin anymore,login etc.

 * Did you back up your files and database before upgrading?

 * you don’t need to go to the wp-admin page.
 * Read the first post in the troubleshooting master list, follow the link.

 * Notice that the section linked to provides instructions for disabling plugins
   without having access to the administrative menus.
 * Follow the instructions.

 * If you have a good hosting package the support department can often roll your
   site and database back to a good restore point.
 * You should have a staging website to test upgrades before rolling them out on
   a production site.
 * I was locked out for twenty minutes the other day when a plugin upgrade failed,
   this I could not replicate on a local install, I managed to correct it with ftp,
   but in the past I have asked my ISP to roll things back, when I have had a major
   upgrade failure (DotNetNuke not WordPress).

 * How long does it take for the upgrade to be installed. It says “check back in
   a minute.” It’s been about 10 minutes and nothing.
