Is there a setting that I can check or do I need to do that in an FTP program?

Thanks. I had to give permission to all files. I did the folder and thinking everything in it has permission but that’s not the case. Thanks
I’m having a similar alert / warning / problem:
Warning: copy(/home/hetanker/domains/[domainname]/public_html/wp-admin/includes/update-core.php) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/hetanker/domains/[domainname]/public_html/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-direct.php on line 200
I deleted the directory ./wp-admin/wp-content/upgrade and made a new one. Then tried again.
Now it says: Directory can’t be created (it says it in Dutch so I’m not 100% sure what it was in English) : /home/hetanker/domains/[domainname]/public_html/wp-content/upgrade/wordpress-3.tmp
Installation failed
Any idea’s?
BTW
Of course I checked if the folder /upgrade had enough privileges.

Sorry I don’t think you’re experiencing the same issue, as the suggestion that resolved the original poster’s issue hasn’t worked for you.

Give permission to the files via FTP . That will fix it
OK, I will create a new thread, sorry. (BtW I did use FTP, didn’t help)

Did you do the files or folder? Doing the folder won’t fix it. Select the files and change the properties.

You will need to wait a bit for all the files to be uploaded to the server, which can takes 15 mins. I had to do that a few times because I did not wait
There are no files in the folder… At least, not in /upgrade and I have no idea which others are involved.
Also, I’m not uploading anything to the server, so waiting for files to be uploaded doesn’t help.
Thanks for trying to help though 🙂

I cannot upgrade my wordpress site because of:
What can I do about this:
Warning: copy(/home/admihulp/domains/administratiekantoorhulpengemak.com/public_html/wp-admin/includes/update-core.php) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in/home/admihulp/domains/administratiekantoorhulpengemak.com/public_html/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-direct.php on line 217
The update cannot be installed because we will be unable to copy some files. This is usually due to inconsistent file permissions.: wp-admin/includes/update-core.php
