Tried another install, same server other domain/website. running 3.0.1

updated on the of plugins that were heighlighted to upgrade, did the automatic install. works fine.

Then on to auto upgrade to 3.0.3 this gets stucks halfway and gives me this error

Downloading update from https://www.ads-software.com/wordpress-3.0.3.zip…

Unpacking the update…

Verifying the unpacked files…

Installing the latest version…

Could not copy file.: /public_html/wp-admin/css/theme-editor.dev.css

Installation Failed

further trying to autoupgrade does not work.

I don’t get it at all :'(

Ok tried it on a 2.9.2 on another server.

auto upgrading plugins works
auto upgrading to 3.0.3 works
auto upgrading plugin still works

So that leaves: Server specs/ or the fact that I update a 3.0 or 3.0.1 to 3.0.3

I am out of WP installs to test, if anyone has any tips #prettyplease

Hey I am pretty sure I have a fix for the Automatic Upgrade Problem.

In your root folder edit your .htaccess file

Open .htacess file up in notepad
at the top, add this code-

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

Then save and re-upload to your site.

I use the 1&1 as a host.

Now it works perfect.

Hope this works.

I change my .htaccess to this:

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
 AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php

# BEGIN WordPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

But that just brakes down the site completely?

It gives me a 500 int.server error?

Read about it, but doesn’t seem to fix the problem? Any advice?

This is the server, it is PHP5+ indeed:

anyone any ideas? #prettyplease

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I HAVE.

COPY EXACTLY & OVERWRITE your .htaccess with the below code only

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

Let me know if that works.

Thank you for your reply again ??

now when I use that the site brakes down and the browser shows me this:

<?php
/**
 * Front to the WordPress application. This file doesn't do anything, but loads
 * wp-blog-header.php which does and tells WordPress to load the theme.
 *
 * @package WordPress
 */

/**
 * Tells WordPress to load the WordPress theme and output it.
 *
 * @var bool
 */
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);

/** Loads the WordPress Environment and Template */
require('./wp-blog-header.php');
?>

any ideas?

Did you try upgrading automatically to 3.0.3 before you upgraded the plugins?

I upgraded automatically to 3.0.3, and after that I upgraded Akismet. The Akismet upgrade was to make it compatible with 3.0.3, so I thought I should upgrade to 3.0.3 before I did anything else.

I tried different options, I tested upgrading plugins before and after and somehow that did matter?

still dont know how to fix this :'(

Did you change the file permissions for folders public_html and wp_content without knowing???

Check this article to find out about permissions specific to a WordPress installation…

https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Changing_File_Permissions

I didn’t change permissions. I wonder if the upgrade is doing this somehow? But I can hardly imagine I am the only one facing these issues with auto upload on 3.0.2 or 3.0.3?

Would still appriciate some ninja’s input ??

The upgrade won’t have changed folder permissions but your hosts may have.

Have you tried turning all plugins off then try them one by one?

This actually worked for me a couple of times.

Google Analytics or Plugins by-Denis de Bernardy messed it up if I remember correctly.

I agree with UtahSEO. Most of the time a stupid plugin is the culprit…

I think this could be a problem with the 3.03 update, I do multiple installations on my own server weekly and never have problems, and with this new update, I cannot run any auto upgrades or updates to plugins, and I’m getting other issues as well.

UtahSEO’s solution of adding the following line to .htaccess worked perfectly for me for upgrading from 3.0.1 to 3.0.3 and I’m using 1&1 as my host as well. Thanks!!

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
