   a network of typically less tech-savvy users.

 * Okay, tried the single install then update Akismet, it doesn’t even get the spinny
   icon, it just stops at
 * > Downloading update from [https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/akismet.3.0.2.zip…](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/akismet.3.0.2.zip…)
 * It actually does update, it’s just that the screen never refreshes. This is similar
   to how it _usually_ works on my multisite too, the big issue being when I try
   to update multiple plugins, it doesn’t usually move beyond the first in the list.
 * The only repeated error on my single site install is:

 * Just to update:
 * I’m still working with my VPS on this issue. They’re trying to claim it’s a WP
   issue, I’m thinking it’s a server issue (started when we put Varnish on, although
   it didn’t go away when we took Varnish off).
 * I’d love feedback on an idea I had to try to prove them wrong is sound:
 * I installed a completely fresh WPMS install on the same server, but a completely
   different fresh cPanel install. No themes, no plugins aside from Akismet and 
   Hello Dolly. Akismet needs an update. Tried the update, exact same issue. That
   suggests to me it’s a server thing. Am I wrong in thinking this since I’ve effectively
   ruled out any WP software issues by doing a completely fresh install?

 * My host is trying a couple of things on the VPS side, so we’ll see if that makes
   a change, but if not, I’ll try your steps. I’ll report back either way.
 * Thank you.

 * Downloading/installing a plugin has never been a problem, just updating them.
   Since your troubleshooting incorrectly targets installing, is this the same procedure
   to follow to test updating a plugin? I’d rather not do another full backup on
   a production site only to troubleshoot a problem that doesn’t exist.

 * That big white column on the right shows which sites on the network have the 
   plugin active (none).
 * [http://cl.ly/image/0t0e3l0s2Z3t/Voila_Capture%202014-08-20_11-05-52_AM.png](http://cl.ly/image/0t0e3l0s2Z3t/Voila_Capture%202014-08-20_11-05-52_AM.png)
 * So I went ahead and deleted it, the error message is gone, but it still stalls
   when I try to upgrade plugins.
 * So let’s ignore the installer error since that’s not the real issue here, the
   real issue is that I can’t update plugins from within wp-admin.
 * According to cPanel, here is my error log:
    [http://cl.ly/image/1Z3o223e3D2L/Voila_Capture%202014-08-20_11-16-07_AM.png](http://cl.ly/image/1Z3o223e3D2L/Voila_Capture%202014-08-20_11-16-07_AM.png)
 * I’m trying to look at my public_html/error_log, but it’s 2.5g (last updated March
   of this year) so it’s still downloading. I renamed it before trying to unsuccessfully
   update another plugin, expecting a new error_log to appear, but it didn’t, and
   the plugin timed out like before.

 * “That plugin”? Which plugin?
 * Anyway, I’ve deactivated all plugins already, that has no impact on the ability
   to update.

 * I have it active. That’s all that’s required to duplicate this issue, WP Geo 
   + Jetpack Stats being activated. I have a fresh 3.5.2 install, running 2012 theme
   + WP Geo + Jetpack Stats having the issue, along with one of my production sites.
