Call to undefined function could mean that your upgrade probably did not succeed. Do a manual update via FTP instead: http://codex.wordpress.org/Updating_WordPress#Manual_Update

I did try and upgrade manually. As I said in my original post, I downloaded the 3.1 setup and manually installed it via FTP. I followed those same instructions that you linked to, but I get the same error.
Any ideas?

you may also try (if you already have not tried):
-clearing cache in your browser before viewing the updated page. To clear cache in your browser, press clrl+f5 keys simultaneously. Also, try different computer/different browser.
-contacting the hosting provider if they have any problem at their end, or they made any changes to your account, or if there are any limitations/restrictions, etc. Also check with them if you need to upgrade the hosting account in order to install and run your verson of the WordPress.
-make sure all files/folders got uploaded, plus they got uploaded to the rihgt location.
-deactivating ALL plugins temporarily to narrow down and possibly fix the problem. If the problem goes away, activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the culprit.
If you don’t have access to your admin area, try deactivating them manually via FTP or phpMyAdmin.
-switching to the default theme (“twentyten”) for a moment by renaming your current theme’s folder in wp-content/themes. The idea is to force WordPress to fall back to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific issue.
If you don’t have access to your admin area, then access your server via FTP or SFTP or whatever file management application your host provides.

I have tried clearing my cache and used different browsers. The problem has changed now, instead of showing an error it shows a blank page.
I tried disabling the plugins and switching to the default theme via FTP but that is not working.
I am going to try and restore a full website backup.
The main issue is that for some reason, when updating plugins or WordPress, it loads for around 5 to 10 minutes or even indefinitely which isn’t right at all. From what I am used to, it usually downloads and installs the plugin practically instantly. So if I can restore the backup and get the website working again, how can I fix this problem so I can update WordPress?
Thanks for your help.
