@Jesse:

It is likely that the Plugins you are using will not be impacted by the update. If they are, I highly recommend you make time sooner rather than later. The odds are that there will be no issue when you upgrade. The time spent fixing the site after a hack will be infinitely greater than the few minutes it will take to check Plugins. Be careful.

I’d love to just upgrade, BUT unfortunately, my primary blog (self hosted), has a small number of plugins that are not listed as being compatible with the new version.

So, I need a bigger chunk of time than just the 30 seconds to ‘do the update’. I need time to backup the system, try the upgrade, see what breaks, fix it all… And if some plugins really don’t work, then I need to find a substitute plugin, and modify to work with the new plug in.

I need to block out a couple hours for this. Perhaps this weekend.

I understand why others with less technical ability, or larger sites with more plugins and customizations delay even longer before doing their upgrade.

@Derricks: Check in on the forum. Do a manual update. I bet there is an issue with Plugins or something in the uploading process. This kind of situation is very rare and usually the result of a non-standard installation or a server issue. Check to make sure all the cache is cleared and turned off.

Thanks for informational have tried the update three times, deactivated plugins, taken the other recommended updating precautions. Each time I was locked out of my administrative pages, though site viewed normally to users. Just reinstalled site from backup after third attempt this morning and am seeing the issue popping up on other troubleshooting sites. This is the first time I have had problems with an update, so stumped on this one.

Yeah that little cute UPDATE NOW button is so tempting. Hope you are making a backup of the database before you hit it
I had my lesson on the last update but I was lucky that I had created a backup just couple of days ago. You never know what can happen when you hit that little cute Update Now button ..

Just remember, stupid is as stupid does. Don’t think you are stupid, just not paying attention to details. LOL!

Actually, there is a lot of confusion between WordPress.com and the self-hosted version of WordPress.
