Wordpress 2.3.1 Error Messages

Welcome back!

I noticed the latest upgrade was available on my server this weekend, it is really easy to get the latest version at Hostgator, my web host, with single click installation. So I installed version 2.3.1 of on all my sites and carried on blogging. But I started to run into some problems – every time I wrote a new blog post or saved a post I got an error message:

( database error: [Table 'xxxxxx_wrdp5.wp_post2cat' doesn't exist]
SELECT cat_ID AS ID, MAX(post_modified) AS last_mod FROM `wp_posts` p LEFT JOIN `wp_post2cat` pc ON p.ID = pc.post_id LEFT JOIN `wp_categories` c ON pc.category_id = c.cat_ID WHERE post_status = ‘publish’ GROUP BY cat_ID

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/xxxxxx/public_html/budget-travel/wp-includes/wp-db.php:160) in /home/xxxxxx/public_html/budget-travel/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 391)

My posts were still being saved but this error message meant that I had to click on the ‘back’ key to check, and this slowed me down when writing or editing blog posts. Up till now I had not had any trouble using or installing the updates of , so I decided to find out if anyone else was having the same problems. Sure enough I found a thread on the subject of 2.3.1 error messages at the .org forum. Apparently the problem can be caused by plugins that are incompatible with the latest upgrade.

I was using the following plugins on my Blogs to improve search engine optimisation and site visibility:

Finding out which plugin was causing the trouble was really a process of elimination. The contributors to the forum discussion were not all using the same plugins as me, so this is how I decided to check: I just deactivated each plugin in turn to narrow down the list. I found two of the plugins were incompatible at the time – Allinone SEO Pack Plugin and the Google XML Sitemaps GeneratorPlugin. I visited the download sites of the plugin developers, and soon found they had developed updates that I could download and install. Problem sorted: I am still having problems with the TextLink Ads plugin, though, but that is another blog post.
