 * I am unable to update any of my plugins for wordpress and also unable to update
   to 3.5.1.
 * I am getting this response for example;
 * Updating Plugin Easy Popular Posts (1/1)
 * Downloading update from [http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/easy-popular-posts.zip…](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/easy-popular-posts.zip…)
   
   An error occurred while updating Easy Popular Posts: Download failed. Could not
   open handle for fopen() to /var/chroot/home/content/61/7671461/tmp/easy-popular-
   posts.tmp. Disabling Maintenance mode… All updates have been completed.
