 * I have just upgraded to the latest version (1.8.0) of nextgen gallery.
 * It requires a database upgrade so I clicked on the “upgrade now…” link. It turns
   red and nothing happens. My browser does not indicate anything is loading and
   the page doesn’t change.
 * I left it for a few minutes and tried again. Nothing. Tried refreshing, deactivating/
   reactivating plugin all to no avail.
 * I can’t edit any settings or galleries until the db is upgraded.
 * Any ideas?

 * Not too sure. It wasn’t that old. Probably 1.7.3

 * There are just minor updates during he upgrade, maybe you should reupload all
   files again or downgrade… no idea why this should happened from 1.7.3
