    Hi I have WP 2.8.1 and I am trying to automatically upgrade. Instead of having it as mysite.com/wordpress I have it as mysite.com/blog

    Now when I try to automatically upgrade I get a folder not found. How do I correct this?

    Thanks

    Dan

    Yes, that's the point I want to simply click 'upgrade' and get updated. Instead I'm getting the 'Unable to locate WordPress Root directory.

    Installation Failed "

    Error.

    It listed as http://www.warrior-scholar.com/blog/

    Thanks

    It's been a week can anyone give me a hand here?

  7. The fact that your blog is in /blog shouldn't matter.

    I've had 'em in /blog, /wordpress, /wp, /hidden, and everything else.

    Anyway. Read this: http://www.mstudiostalk.com/2009/10/21/a-remedy-to-the-unable-to-locate-wordpress-root-directory-error/

    See if it helps.
