    Well, I appreciate the help anyway. It’s refreshing to have issues about a Windows box and not half half the replies “lol install it on linux” (Which I have tried to do, twice, on a dedicated LAMP server and it just wasn’t having it.)

    Thanks for your time.

    Aye, I figured that was my problem. What I’m in the dark about is how to actually fix it (or where else to start looking) as I have barely any SQL experience at all. I was just told “Get a website working.” and that was it.

    Windows Firewall is actually disabled as we’re on a domain with a dedicated firewall, and I wouldn’t have a clue where to start with checking the MySQL config.
    Launching the MySQL Command Line Client gives the error

    Could not open required default file: C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL Server 5.1\my.ini
    Fatal error in defaults handling. Program aborted.
    Enter password:

    Entering any string (whether it be the password or not) causes the CLI to close without any further messages.

    @javawpscript No, it’s hosted on a Windows Server 2012 R2 virtual machine.

    @catacaustic thanks for that.

    Does the Root Relative URLs plugin only affect links etc, or will it also apply to embedded images in posts (from Media uploads) and images in the theme/layout etc?

    An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or this server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the support forums.

    Try again

    Hmm.. Starting to look more and more like it may be a routing error or the proxy blocking it..

    I may need to investigate where it points to with regards to updating/plugins etc..

    I’ve looked into the manual update but haven’t actioned anything yet as I’m still extremely flaky with Linux CLI. I was hoping there’d be a solution to the issue of it not seeing the update.

    Do you have any idea about where WordPress checks to for new updates? It might simply be a filtering issue, but I don’t know where it’s looking.

    I was able to install WordPress (And other LAMP services) easily with get-apk etc so I know it does have internet access.
