OK, this is third time I've upgraded, after downgrading twice and restoring. I've manually loaded every file and folder. And, now what is my reward? This error for the second time at http://www.radicalcontrapositions.com/left_flank/wp-admin/upgrade.php:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/infidelw/www/www/left_flank/wp-includes/query.php on line 1395
It's no longer educational or enjoyable at this pace. What is going wrong? How do I make this stop?
