I was updating to 6.16 and ran into some unexpected errors. I'm getting two different error messages, depending on which page I try to load.

For my homepage I get:

warning: require_once(./includes/lock.inc) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/maest3/public_html/includes/bootstrap.inc  on line 1063

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required './includes/lock.inc' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/maest3/public_html/includes/bootstrap.inc on line 1063

For most other pages, including trying to get my site out of maintenance mode it get:

Warning: Unterminated comment starting line 58 in /home/maest3/public_html/includes/cache.inc on line 58

Warning: Unterminated comment starting line 425 in /home/maest3/public_html/includes/database.inc on line 425

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/maest3/public_html/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 98

I also get a white screen of death when I try to run the update.php.

Any ideas what is going on here?

Thanks?

If you look in /home/maest3/public_html/includes is there a lock.inc (there should be). That plus the other errors would suggest something failed when you updated the files.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I ended up rolling back to a backup version of the site (thank goodness for backups!) and got things moving again. For some reason I was only getting errors when "www" was added to the domain name. With out the "www", there were no errors. This site is on a shared host and now the problems seem to be resolved.

I updated my site to 6.16 without any problems today... Strange.....
