[wp-pro] wpmu+buddypress site is down

Fri Mar 27 23:01:12 GMT 2009

Hi -
Any help would be appreciated as to next steps.

I am desperate for assistance with my site.

all was working fine until i upgraded to wpmu 2.7 and the latest version of
buddypress.

as it stands right now, i tried to downgrade to older buddypress and my blog
site is down. (blank screens)

looking for help with getting site back up and finishing up new buddypress.
(error was very strange. all buddypress pages work fine EXCEPT
/blog/index.php (main blog for site) would automatically redirect to
/blog/wp-admin.

thanks!
jenn
