Thanks for the reply. I contacted them but they said everything was ok. I triple checked everything in my gmail (business account) and no filters, nothing in spam, trash, other, etc. I don’t know why but I created other accounts in my business domain and they worked fine.

I ended up just changing the from address in WordPress to a new email (and having that email address exist as well, like my last one) and it works fine again. *Shrug*

Hey creativefield, any luck with this? I’m having the same issue with Godaddy starting about that time too.

Sorry people, I looked into it further and it appears to only be happening with a custom theme. Closing topic.

^ My host is running IIS 6 btw

Hi again,

I took the time to track it down to the source in the code. I’m seeing the problem in the class-wp-upgrader.php as it tries to copy one file:

// Copy update-core.php from the new version into place.
		if ( !$wp_filesystem->copy($working_dir . '/wordpress/wp-admin/includes/update-core.php', $wp_dir . 'wp-admin/includes/update-core.php', true) )

So basically the rendered version would be

if ( !$wp_filesystem->copy('D:\Web Sites\Hosted\MYWEB/wp-content/upgrade/wordpress-2.9/wordpress/wp-admin/includes/update-core.php', 'D:\Web Sites\Hosted\MYWEB/wp-admin/includes/update-core.php', true)

Digging a bit further, I dig into the class-wp-filesystem-direct.php:

function copy($source, $destination, $overwrite = false) {
		if ( ! $overwrite && $this->exists($destination) )
			return false;
		return copy($source, $destination);
	}

Basically it skips past the overwrite code, and tries to do a simple PHP copy. This, I would assume, is a permission problem with my host. What do I have to ask of them to get this to work? Does EVERYTHING need to be writable???

I tried #1 as I read that thread before asking this question. Did not change much. And I do have define(‘FS_METHOD’, ‘direct’); already in my config.

Thanks for the help but no workie. If anyone else can suggest anything else I’ll give it a shot. I just wish I had a more informative error.

plugins and themes both work

edit: and yes, when they have upgrades that part works to for them (auto upgrade)
