One thing you might try is this: tkdoherty.com/wp-login.php
If it looks like you logged in okay but you get a blank page, try: tkdoherty.com/wp-admin/update-core.php and see if you can complete the automatic update.
The other thing you might do is perform the update manually.
NO, I don’t get a blank page when I try to log in. I get an error message. I tried setting up another login to test if the problem is anim-only, but the new login got the same error. Then I tried a manual install. No luck:
The website encountered an error while retrieving http://www.tkdoherty.com/wp-admin/index.php. It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.
NO, I don’t get a blank page when I try to log in.
I mentioned that as instructions on how to possibly circumvent it if you did, because last night when I visited your site at /wp-admin, it rendered a blank page. /wp-login.php did not.
I made the assumption from your initial comments, that you couldn’t log in…
“I can’t access my admin anymore”
…So, now I’m a little confused on what your real problem might actually be.
tried setting up another login to test if the problem is anim-only,
Did you have any luck finding a solution for the incorrectly configured server error message?
Did you check Database Name, Database Username, Database Password and Database Host in wp-config.php?
Thanks for the suggestions everyone. So far I’ve had no luck. I did check my config file and everything seems in order, so I don’t know where the error is. Unfortunately on my host (bluehost) I can’t restore individual databases or files, so if I restore from an earlier backup, I’ll wipe out updates/posts on my other blog. …I think I’m going to end up wiping out the blog on tkdoherty.com and then rebuild it.
Okay, I copied my theme drawer to a local drive, then deleted WP and re-installed. The auto install from my web host loads 3.3.2. After it finished I copied my theme drawer to the new install and activated the theme. So far so good. But when I tried to upgrade to 3.4, I got the following error message:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class Custom_Image_Header in /home/tdoherty/public_html/wp-admin/custom-header.php on line 16
I tried this a couple of times including loading the upgrade first and then loading the theme. Each time my admin crashed with the above message… Should I just stick with 3.3.2?
Can you login now? Are you using a customized version of 2010, or a child theme of 2010? It seems the error message is related to the theme. Try to change to the default theme twentyeleven and see if the error repeats.
The error appears to be theme related with 3.4. I can log in as long as I’m running 3.3.2. As soon as I upgrade my admin is gone.
Which theme you loaded with 3.4 ?
Is it a child theme, customized theme, or developed by theme vendors? I ask this question because your problem is related to the theme.
I have the same problem over here. I can’t access my admin anymore. I updated something in the editor by mistake and now i can’t even enter username or password to log in to my dashboard. What can i do?
Open your wp-config.php file. Change define('WP_DEBUG',false); to define('WP_DEBUG',true); and then you run your site, there is an error you will get, fix it, I think this error occurred because of some mistake in coding.
(after all operations you should make wp_debug false).
Hope it Help !!
