• I originally came here from Wordfence Security [resolved] Update Error – v 5.1.7. This post discusses a problem that occurs on automated updates (copy failed).

    The error still persist on my sites. For the last update from 5.2.3 to 5.2.4 the following happens:

    Installing Plugin: Wordfence Security 5.2.4

    Downloading install package from https://downloads.www.ads-software.com/plugin/wordfence.5.2.4.zip…

    Unpacking the package…

    Could not copy file. wordfence/images/forward_enabled.jpg

    I checked the permissions. The are like the following:

    /
    0755  /wp-content
    0755  /wp-content/plugins
    0755  /wp-content/plugins/wordfence
    0755  /wp-content/plugins/wordfence/images
    0644  /wp-content/plugins/wordfence/images/forward_enabled.jpg

    Other plugins are similar (same permissions, same user and group), so I am a bit confused, because the other plugins can be updated without problems.
