 * Have you tried:
 * -contacting the webserver if the database server is online / if they have problem
   at their end, or they made any changes to your account, or if there are any limitations/
   restrictions, etc . Also check with them if you need to upgrade the hosting account
   in order to install and run your verson of the WordPress?
 * -make sure all files/folders got uploaded to the rihgt location.
 * -Checking your [wp-config.php file settings](http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php)
   for the database name, and the host name (e.g., “localhost” Vs. something else)?
 * -deactivating ALL plugins before updating?

   not in my database when I go into my php admin it shows wp_2_posts how would 
   I fix this?

 * This error was on wordpresses part the wp_options url value was changed to [http://www.url.com](http://www.url.com)
   instead of keeping the way I had it therefore allowing my site not connect to
   database.
