Deimos’s Thoughts
At first I find it a bit troublesome that Wordpress did not offer update packages, instead they always shove all the files into each release.
Today I realized that they got list out which files were modified / updated, so basically one only needs to update those modified / updated files in order to update their Wordpress to the latest version.
From Wordpress’s official announcement page, it seems that this release is another security fix. I guess it would be advisable to update as soon as possible aye?
Would not be very pleasant if one’s draft entries are exposed?

So, my dear fellow bloggers, have you already updated your Wordpress to the lastest version?

The upgrade.php thingie is to update one’s Wordpress database.

Anyone else here use Fantastico to manage your Wordpress installation? I installed Wordpress using it and auto-updated to 2.3.1 using it, so I’m afraid to manually install this patch in case it breaks something. It doesn’t look like the Fantastico package for this is ready yet.

[Total silence in here ...]
Not sure if the horde of commentators would be coming back in here or not.
Anyway, if you follow the instructions as explained above, your Wordpress should update just fine without any problems.
Do you have any questions to ask?

I found out the problem. I forgot to add wp-admin/admin.php. Everything is fine now. Thank you for the information. This is the easiest it ever was to upgrade to a new wordpress version. Hope it’s like this for the next release.

Glad to hear that you sorted out your problem.
Was going to suggest to you to re-upload all the files in wp-admin folder.
Yeah, I am going to release a similar update package for the next release.
Cheers, mate.
