 * I [svn] upgraded today following the recent few updates, and as before, the upgrading
   process broke the API and made /api 404. Thankfully, I have monit checks set 
   up for these, so I was instantly alerted.
 * As I reported before, re-saving doesn’t work, but first changing the path value
   to something random and then back to “api” does the trick.
 * Any idea why this keeps happening and how to make it not do that in the future?

 * Yeah, I’ve had this happen to me before, and I’m still not sure what might be
   happening. Do you remember what the old version you were running prior to doing
   the svn update? I’m going to see if I can replicate the problem in my dev environment.

 * I’ve tried switching between 1.0.7 and trunk without seeing the problem. Are 
   you able to replicate the bug by downgrading and re-upgrading?

 * I was running 1.0.7, I believe.
 * I just tried to downgrade back, test, then up, and test. No problems. So not 
   sure what keeps happening that would do this 🙁

 * Yeah, I’ve never been able to reproduce this consistently. And it’s hard to debug
   without a set of repeatable steps. I’ll try to run through some possibilities,
   though, it’s something that comes up on the wp-hackers list from time to time.

 * Weird, rommelxcastro, could you send me the URL? You can email it to me at dan
   at phiffer dot org if you’d rather not have it public.
