   Well i successfully upgraded from 2.6.5 TO 2.7 without any problem just my WP-sticky which is solved now.

   So here's the formula to successfully upgrade ur site;

   1) Don't use automatic update option, do it manually

   2) Follow the intructions.

   http://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrading_WordPress_Extended

   Upload files using ur FTP

   Note: Don't follow this rule

   "wp-content folder; Special Exception: the wp-content/cache and the wp-content/plugins/widgets folders should be deleted"

   Just delete wp-content/cache don't delete wp-content/plugins/ folder

   and u'll get fully working site.
