 * I upgraded to WP 2.3.1. Since then the links from my home page on the website
   to the internal pages redirect to my blog’s 404 error page. When I removed WP
   by FTP I got 500 Internal Server Errors instead. How can I resolve this?

 * If you “removed WP by FTP” you will need to reupload the WordPress files. See
   [Uploading WordPress to a remote host](http://codex.wordpress.org/Uploading_WordPress_to_a_remote_host).
 * Once you’ve uploaded the files and can access your blog, then try updating your
   permalinks via [Administration](http://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Panels)
   > [Options](http://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Panels#Permalinks) > [Permalinks](http://codex.wordpress.org/Permalinks_Options_SubPanel).

 * No, that didn’t really help. I’m using WordPress with Joomla and I had my website
   all set up prior to installing WP. I actually had a previous version installed
   and updated to 2.3.1. When I did that it broke all the links from my index page
   on the website to the internal pages. None of the other pages of my website are
   accessible. The blog is fine. But for some odd reason, when I click on a link
   on my menu bar at the website I end up on the blog’s 404 page. When I remove 
   the WordPress files and take the blog completely off the website, all I get is
   a 500 error page. Oddest thing I’ve ever seen.
