In preparation for updating a high traffic EE site I run, I set up a MAMP version to do a test run. After setting up the 1.6.8 version locally with no problems and testing it it out, I followed the update procedure to 1.6.9. The first stage went smoothly–running update.php worked fine as did the second step of optimizing the tables. However, after that I was no longer able to access the site or control panel, instead receiving the generic “Error” page template. I have looked through all of the related threads on this update but can’t find anything that helps. I really want to get this sorted out before I run the update on the live site.
thanks!
