Hello! I have a symbolic link established from my public_html directory to another where my WordPress installation lives (v2.5). Receiving this error message when trying to run the Automatic Upgrade plugin. Is there a workaround here? Thanks!
Warning: is_dir() [function.is-dir]: Stat failed for /home/fpants/v1/public_html (errno=40 - Too many levels of symbolic links) in /home/fpants/v1/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-automatic-upgrade/wpau_zip.class.php on line 99

Hey rosschapman - did you ever discover the issue behind the "Too many levels of symbolic links" problem?

Got it! Media Temple resolved the issue, which was contained in the WP database. See: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/246243?replies=7
There is another solution as well (although not as easy as Lil Chris' advice). If you examine your db files and see this string...
/nfs/c01/h03/
...and you're familiar with working with phpMyAdmin, replace that string in any table that contains that string with:
/home/
If you follow Lil Chris' advice, you might see that string in your "Store uploads in this folder" note at the top of the page...simply change the first string to home if you see that code in that input box, and it should work.
