 I just tried installing Wordpress 3.9 on a newly built Ubuntu 14.04 server
 which is running PHP 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.  I'm using the basic 2014 theme.

 I was able to successfully install Wordpress and login to the dashboard.
 When I try and make any changes like adding or deleting posts, pages or
 users nothing saves.  Wordpress reports the action was completed, however,
 if I then click on the Post, Pages or Users menu the display is reset and
 nothing has actually be changed.

 If I wait for a few seconds (maybe 10-20 seconds) and then try and refresh
 the table, some changes will actually go through.  If I click save and
 refresh enough times I'm able to get some actions to take, but the process
 is messy.

 I have verified the database user has all privileges on the database.
 Wordpress 3.9 works fine on my Ubuntu 13.04 server with PHP
 5.4.9-4ubuntu2.4.
