fatal error upgrading

    pretty distressed right now. I have a website running buddypress 1.2 with a few other bp plugins as well. been trying for days to set up a local test site so i could test the 1.5 upgrade. had a really difficult/frusterating time moving my online site to local test site so i decided to just upgrade live (bad call). guess the upgrade didnt go well and now i cant access my site or my site/wp-admin. i did a bunch of backing up beforehand but i’m unsure how to use the backup files to restore my site to pre upgrade.

    any help would be greatly appreciated. i’m really new to all of this.

    You didn’t say which plugin is causing the error message, or show the error message itself. I’m assuming you think it’s BuddyPress.

    Go into FTP, and go into your wp-content/plugins/ directory. Rename the BuddyPress folder to something else, then visit the admin pages of your site.

    I’m assuming it’s the buddypress plugin that caused it because it happened right after i upgraded to 1.5.1 in dashboard.

    ok i just renamed the buddypress folder in wp-content/plugins via cpanel file manager. still cant access my wp-admin

    Then it might not be the BuddyPress plugin causing the problem. Access your web server’s error log, and tell us what the error is. If you’re unable / don’t know how to do this, ask your web host for support.

    im thinking it might have to do with the unified global search plugin that i got from buddydev.com

    This has happened to me in trying to upgrade from 2.0.1 to 2.0.2

    Why should upgrading cause fatal errors for those who call built-in BP functions in their functions.php?

    @adamt19 Please open a new topic on your problem, and provide detailed info on your setup and just what errors you are getting. The information you provide so far isn’t sufficient to be able to speculate on what is going wrong.
