Not continuing to upload image dialog after WP database upgrade.

[jb510]

I was editing a post in one window in WP 3.2.1, and then with FTP updated my site to the latest nightly build via FTP (revision 18619 - because I wanted to try the new drag/drop uploader).

I then went back to the post in progress without opening/closing windows and clicked the insert image icon which popped up a modal saying I needed the upgrade the database. I updated the database and then was presented with my site's front page inside the modal window… when expecting to see the image upload dialog.

I exited the window, clicked insert image again, and was the dialog this time read "No Update Required - (continue)". I clicked continue and again was shown the front page inside the modal, as shown in the screenshot… this bug then repeats… but only for this one post. I tried starting another new post and it made it through to the upload dialog.

At this point I quit and reopened my browser. I was prompted to login again and this time clicking the image upload button made it through to the upload dialog as expected.

I'm guessing a cookie is getting set and not cleared properly but not sure.

Browsers cache redirects, It sounds like the redirection to the upgrade screen is using a permanent redirect instead of a temporary redirect potentially, or your browser is caching the temporary redirect anyway..

Close your browser, and re-open it, and it should forget the redirection and work as expected.

Replying to dd32:

Redirection to the upgrade screen is performed by wp_redirect(), which uses 302 Found by default:

Looks like the latter is happening (browser is caching the temporary redirect).

jb510 said it worked after restarting the browser, so I guess the ticket can be closed.
