I have updated to 7.35 following the update.txt instructions. Everything proceeded as expected and the update completed without error. When I clicked on the admin page link I got back to the admin page with the following alert: "Operating in maintenance mode. Go online."

When I click on that, I get "500 Internal Server Error" page.

How do I get out of maintenance mode?

Getting out of maintenance mode is not the issue. The 500 server error is the issue. Once that is fixed there is a strong chance the maintenance mode problem will be fixed. If you did the upgrade manually rather than in the automated way (with drush - which is also the easy way :-) ) you probably made a mistake with copying the code. The most likely is that you are missing the correct Drupal .htaccess file in document root. Anyway, looking at the Apache error log for recent messages after you see that error will tell you where the problem is.

If you manually updated .htaccess for the PathAuto module to work for multisite or shared servers, don't forget to make that same update. For me it was add the slash on this line => RewriteRule ^ /index.php [L]

After reading John_Bs comments, I was reminded of that. Thanks John.
