Woot and Huzzah! I seem to be back online. It was weird. I kept trying to run the upgrade script from /wp-admin/upgrade.php and kept getting the dreaded “no input file found.” So, for grins, I tried logging in and got what I was looking for… “your database needs upgrading.”
I still haven’t checked everything, but for now at least I won’t have to deal with hundreds of cache files, thousands of cache files, millions and billions and trillions of cache files. Yippee!
Bonus points if you know what childrens book the above paragraph was based on.
