   Hi Everyone
   I got an error message when trying to upgrade. Here it is...

   Upgrade WordPress
   Downloading update from http://wordpress.org/wordpress-2.8.1.zip.
   Unpacking the update.
   Could not copy file: /public_html/blog/wp-content/upgrade/wordpress-2.8.1/wordpress/wp-comments-post.php
   Installation Failed

   Any help would be greatly appreciated.
   Thanks
   Jill

   Might seem simplistic, but did you try to run it again after you got this first error? Is there a possibility that permissions on your end could be out of the ordinary?

   I had the same problem, with two updates on two different domains, but with different files giving the errors. It even caused my server control panel to crash, twice!

   I had to restart the Plesk control panel on my server, and then performed manual updates via FTP of WP and both sites worked fine.

   I used the auto update before this with no problems, but never again!
