carbonize Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 Now if only auto update would work properly on TC servers :| Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 It's been working fine. Delete the upgrade folder and try again. Quote
carbonize Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 I get it all the time though. Be it updating plugins or WordPress. It very rarely succeeds. Quote
carbonize Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 (edited) Just to demonstrate I went to update one of my plugins and here is the result. Downloading update from http://downloads.wor...rm-7.2.3.1.zip… Unpacking the update… Installing the latest version… Deactivating the plugin… Removing the old version of the plugin… Could not remove the old plugin. Plugin upgrade failed. Actions: Return to Plugins page Edited August 4, 2010 by carbonize Quote
Gail Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 I have had the same problem as Carbonize since WordPress started offering automatic updates. I have had success perhaps twice. I do delete the upgrade folder but this doesn't always seem to matter. This time I got the following error message and I know another TCH customer has had the same message: Downloading update from http://wordpress.org/wordpress-3.0.1.zip… Unpacking the update… Verifying the unpacked files… Installing the latest version… Could not copy file.: /public_html/wp-admin/css/theme-editor.dev.css Installation Failed I have pretty much opted for updating manually from now on as this method gives me far less headaches. This time - I was able to update a theme and one plugin automatically but I had to update one plugin manually. It really is 'hit and miss'. Gail Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 Are you using your cPanel login credentials for the FTP user/password? Try that. If you are already doing that check with the help desk because it's been working for me when before I was getting the same results as you are. Quote
Gail Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 Hi Bruce, Yes, I do use my cPanel username and password and I have always done that. I remember contacting the Help Desk about this problem quite some time ago now - I would have to look at the history but I don't think it was ever really resolved. I have 2 blogs - one is a test blog - they do reside on 2 different servers. I thought you always updated your blogs using the manual method? Gail Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 For WordPress releases, yes, I do a manual upgrade but for plugins and themes I use the automatic method. Quote
