We have just updated to WordPress 3.1.3 by following the WP manual install tutorial. Note: This is a Network-enabled (multi-site) install.

After uploading the new files, we now get the following error for ALL pages in the blog:

Error 101 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_RESET): Unknown error.

Any ideas? Here are the examples of our logs when the error occurs, and some of the WP-important files:

Are you sure /wp-includes/load.php made it to the server? If you were installing manually, there's a chance it got lost during the transfer. Happens to me occasionally using FileZilla.

The error messages are basically telling you that the server can't find the file, so make sure the file is there.

  • Thanks for the comment - sorry, we can confirm that the load.php file is there. On previous attempts to update, we've also seen this error complain about not finding /wp-includes/wp-class.php instead of load.php. Doesn't seem consistant on which file it errors out on.

failed to open stream: No such file or directory

1) Did you reupload wp-admin and wp-includes?

2) If it's a VPS, reboot.

  • Thanks - yes we reuploaded wp-admin, wp-includes, and the ancillary files in the root (and a few in wp-content) just like the instructions say. We will look into the reboot...
