    On Linux host. Message (with my cpanel use name deleted)

    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare pclziputilpathreduction() (previously declared in /home/[USERNAMEDELETED]/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-automatic-upgrade/lib/pclzip.lib.php:5421) in /home/[USERNAMEDELETED]/public_html/wp-admin/includes/class-pclzip.php on line 5498

    No damage done. 2.7 is intact. Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks

    deactivate and delete the wordpress automatic upgrade plugin
    it's conflicting with 2.7's native upgrade function

    Had the same problem, deactivated the auto upgrade plugin and used native upgrade function, worked perfectly. Thanks for the fix, Samboll!

    My attempt to auto update gives me a message that it's downloading the 2.7.1.zip and it sits there for several minutes. The word "Done" shows up at the bottom of the browser (Firefox 3.0.6) immediately.

    I wound up updating manually.

    I've got the same issue as davidryuen - just shows that it's downloading the 2.7.1.zip but doesn't actually do anything.

    When I look at the FTP site to see what's going on, there's a file wp-content folder: wordpress-271.zip but it's 0kb in size.

    File permissions all look good (0755)

    It's a real pain having to do this manually for such a minor upgrade

    In my case, at least, it was a file ownership problem.

    Thanks mikej165 - my guess is that's almost certainly the problem for me too - only trouble is, I'm on shared hosting and don't have root user level access :(

    I was stuck at the downloading portion. After some research I found I had to edit my .htaccess file.

    Good Luck

    Thank you, Samboll. Deactivating the plugin worked for me.

    I deactivated the auto upgrade plugin, deleted the upgrade.zip files that had been downloaded to the wp-content folder and then the upgrade worked like a charm.

    Editing the .htaccess gave me page of garbled output and thankfully did not break anything.

    @ onel0ve

    it's asking for your ftp credentials
    whatever you use to upload files

    Deactivating and uninstalling the plug-in worked for me.

    thanks.

    Mine just stops at "upgrading the core update" and nothing else happens. Do you have any ideas samboll?
