 * Hi!
 * I’m getting these kinds of errors since updating my WordPress installation via
   the Auto-Updates plugin:
 * “You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your
   MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘TYPE=MyISAM’ at line 9
   on line: 1471”
    AND “Warning: An unexpected error occurred. Something may be 
   wrong with WordPress.org or this server’s configuration. If you continue to have
   problems, please try the support forums. (WordPress could not establish a secure
   connection to WordPress.org. Please contact your server administrator.) in /home/
   debora2/public_html/blog/wp-includes/update.php on line 287”
 * My host advises this comes from WordPress’ use of openSSL. They suggest I use
   the core control plugin ([http://wordpress.org/plugins/core-control/](http://wordpress.org/plugins/core-control/)).
 * However, the advise on the core control page is that this plugin is no longer
   supported. And besides, as a novice user I’m not keen to dabble in the dark arts
   of core control.
 * Does anyone have more novice-friendly advice on how to deal with these openSSL
   issues?
 * Thanks in advance for your time!
 * D.
