    Have several WP sites and all update perfectly except for one site.
    Tried to update WP to 4.5.1: Error: Could not copy file.: wordpress/wp-admin/includes/class-pclzip.php
    Installation Failed
    Two plugins also failed to update.
    This has never happened before. Could someone please let me know where to start looking for the problem. I tried de-activating all plugins but it made no difference. Thanks!

    – If your server has issue with auto updating, then try MANUALLY updating. Download a fresh copy of the WordPress .zip file to your computer, unzip it, and use that to copy up all files and folders EXCEPT the wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory. You may need to delete the old wp-admin and wp-includes folders and files on your server before uploading the new ones. Read the Manual Update directions first.
    Backup: If you haven’t already done, always backup everything (including your database) before doing any actions.

    It turns out the site was running out of disk space and once I adjusted this the updates went ahead.
