geordie_wilsonI'm trying to help a small non-profit organization fix their site, but I'm no expert. They are not able to automatically upgrade to 3.1.1, nor are they even able to use the dashboard to upgrade plugins, delete plugins or even add new plugins.
Site is hosted on Hostway. I called them for the master FTP account and I reset permissions to 777 just about everywhere I could think of, but still no dice.
Other info that may (?) be relevant -- the site was moved from a sub-directory to the root, then back to another subdirectory (on the theory that having it in the root might have been a problem).
The failure messages are as follows:
