 * Hi [@finansparacom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/finansparacom/), sorry
   you’re experiencing this.
    It could be as a result of bad network, try waiting
   a while until the network is better and then update.
 * But if you’re sure it’s not a network issue, you could post the error message
   you’re getting.
 * Thanks and have a great day🤗

 * Please check your error log for possible clues. Right now we have little to go
   on beyond there is an error of some sort. Log locations vary, check your hosting
   control panel for a way to access the log.

 * No WordPress auto-updates occur. In despite of cancelling all the add-ons, it
   doesn’t come again. The page is blank while I try to reinstall WordPress version
   from auto-updates

 * Yup, got that. A blank white page indicates a PHP error occurred, which gets 
   logged in an error log file. We need to know what type and where the error occurred.
   If you have trouble finding the error log, define WP_DEBUG as `true` in wp-config.
   php. There already is a definition there as `false`, just change it to `true`.
   Attempt to update from the dashboard. Instead of a blank page, you will see error
   messages.
