Description

When an upgrade borks, there should be a simple script that allow you to rollback to the previous version. It should be mostly separate from the admin interface and allow for the restoration of both a database and the files associated with the previous version.

I'd say close this one as fixed in WP 2.9, or wontfix. We check for PHP/MySQL version, and we abort as needed. Once we touch the database, there really isn't much turning back.

We could make a backup of the database before attempting an upgrade. Don't know how well that would work on MU though.

  • Milestone changed from Future Release to 3.0

This is a Feature Request for 3.0 (at least wished: #11646).
