    Hey guys,

    after a year of staying away from WordPress I try to install the new version of WordPress 3.0.

    I have a Debian server with all necessary tools like apache2, php5 and mysql.

    But after unzip the .tar file and create the wp-config, i get the following error:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp() in /var/www/wordpress3/wp-blog-header.php on line 14

    There are still some other errors with finding functions.
    Have a look: Link

    I’ve had the exact same problem with various files…. I found that re-uploading them fixed MOST of them, however post.php continues to have the problem…. Which means anything requiring post.php gives the error. I’m still unable to find the solution.

    I try to overwrite the system more times as well.
    Nothing happens so far. But good to know being not
    alone with that problem.

    Just to keep you in the loop, I found a solution that seems to have worked, though it’s not the ideal solution. I had to go through and re-copy the .php files directory by directory, until it finally worked. I’m sure there’s probably a better way if there were more detailed error messages, but I’m new to php and wordpress so I don’t know of it.

    Hope that helps.

    I too have error messages;
    Fatal error: Call to a member function add_rewrite_tag() on a non-object in /home/***/public_html/testing/wp-includes/taxonomy.php on line 289

    SO glad i did not try this on a live blog!

    Yea, a live blog would blow. And no one seems to know of a real solution to it either, which is the real frustrating part.

    PeterWadson, this error usually occurs because of an invalid character in the security keys in the wp-config.php file. Unfortunately, the key generator is 100% random and therefore doesn’t filter out invalid characters. Just regenerate and replace your security keys and it should work fine.

    probablepossible, reset your plugins and upgrade the Podcasting Plugin by TSG to 2.3.10 before reactivating it. (If you aren’t using the Podcasting Plugin by TSG, then the problem is being caused by the wordTube plugin. Deactivate it and wait for the developer to release a fix before reactivating it.)

    Got it!

    The problem was that my worpress installation path had the chmod 644 so the system can’t create the config file. Switch it to 777 and it works.

    Thanks a lot guys.
