 * David, now that WP 5.0 is out, do you have any projections on when Post Kinds
   may work on Gutenberg? What obstacles are you facing? Will this require turning
   each post-kind into a block type?
 * I gather from the 3.1.4 release announcement that it won’t hurt to have the plugin
   activated with Gutenberg, but that if we want to use post kinds, we should use
   Classic Editor for now. Is that correct?
 * Thanks!

 * In hopes that more people might see this than when I posted two weeks ago, I 
   offer an update.
 * I’m still having this problem in WordPress 4.3.1. The theme has been updated 
   twice since the issue arose.
 * Happy to answer any questions, or pursue any possible solution.
 * Thanks!

 * Further investigation into this pointed to a hosting issue. Permissions were 
   properly set on the folders (to 755), but permissions on wp-trackback.php were
   somehow set by the host to 000. Whenever we tried to change the permissions on
   the file, it immediately reverted back to 000 (I’d save the updated permissions,
   then refresh the browser window. The file permissions went back to 000).
 * I informed tech support, who reported back that he had changed ownership of the
   file to our user account, and permissions back to 644. WordPress update completed
   normally!

 * [@kmessinger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kmessinger/) I will double-
   check the folders, but pretty sure they are set that way.

 * I am having a similar problem updating [http://www.stc-wi.org](http://www.stc-wi.org)
   to 3.7.1. Here’s my update results:
 * > Downloading update from [https://wordpress.org/wordpress-3.7.1-no-content.zip…](https://wordpress.org/wordpress-3.7.1-no-content.zip…)
   > Unpacking the update…
   > Verifying the unpacked files…
   > Preparing to install the latest version…
   > The update cannot be installed because we will be unable to copy some files.
   > This is usually due to inconsistent file permissions.: wp-trackback.php
   > Installation Failed
 * As with CNHub (though a different referenced file), wp-trackback.php had 0-0-
   0 permissions. At first, I couldn’t change the permissions on my host, but tech
   support updated CPanel and changed the permission on this file to 644. Still 
   no update. I can still access the dashboard, etc.
 * I had no trouble updating [http://www.michaelmccallister.com](http://www.michaelmccallister.com)
   from 3.70 to 3.7.1. Could there be a theme/plugin issue?
 * Any advice appreciated. My support ticket at Lunarpages is still open too, if
   I need to get more info there.

 * Yes, I’ve been fighting with this issue for a few days as well. I am tempted 
   to go back to 3.4 for my test bed, but not sure that works either. What’s interesting
   in the error message is the “cannot map GET…” sentence. Is this coming from the
   database? There is no subfolder in my XAMMP tree (nor would I necessarily expect
   one).
 * One possible piece of the puzzle for those who may know more about Apache servers:
   the [Apache Wiki “List of Errors” page](http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/ListOfErrors)
   says this is what AH00127 is: “Buggy authn provider failed to set user for %s”
 * Another possible piece of the puzzle: [This thread from StackOverflow](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13089176/error-403-and-xampp-error-20024)
   suggests that changing a setting in the “new XAMMP Security Concept” section 
   of xampp-httpd.conf may help too: “I am guessing it has something to do with 
   the new XAMPP Security Concept. My best answer to this would be to change the
   Deny to Allow in that section of your httpd-xampp.conf file.”
 * I hope this helps others troubleshoot.
