Seriously...you rock. Thanks for making this plugin.
Thanks for the appreciation, it really makes me feel proud. It gives me the encouragement to do more things that will help people without having to expect something in return just because of such appreciations :).
Well that said there are several things in the pipeline and you will definitely see more from me.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class snoopy in E:\inetpub\vhosts\elektrix.si\httpdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\class-snoopy.php on line 47
Any ideas?
Wordpress 2.6
Thankx to the creator.
Btw, I'm using this plugin for my other blog and I'm very sure to upgrade it now. :)
Thanks keith.
Can we have that back.
I'm running into the Site Maintenance error. I have phpsuexec installed on my server, so I don't need to set permissions.
In short, your plugin saved my marriage. :-)
Thanks for this plugin. It's really convenient for those who are not so familiar with upgrading manually. And it's also great to know internationalization support will be added.
Thanks again!
Regards

.pureftpd-upload.487f8d05.15.2895.17e1d00c one time, and
.pureftpd-upload.487f8ae3.15.646e.85cdefcd the next.
When I try to delete the directory, I can't because of these 2 files. When I try to delete the 2 files, I get an error message like:
ERROR 550 Prohibited filename: pureftpd-upload.487f8d05.15.2895.17e1d00c : /public_html/wp/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-automatic-upgrade/.pureftpd-upload.487f8d05.15.2895.17e1d00c
They are 0 0 0 0 files, no read write execute permissions. When I try to change those permissions, I'm not allowed to do that either.
How can I eliminate these files and this directory?
I never had a problem upgrading the standard way, but the plugin just made it THAT much easier (and as I said, this is a godsend for people who either can't be bothered doing all the usual stuff or are truly afraid of mucking something up).
This is the type of thing that should absolutely be included in default WP-installs (it can be disabled for users who want control).

Upgrade Plugin
Downloading update from http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/wordpress...
Unpacking the update
Deactivating the plugin
Removing the old version of the plugin
Could not remove the old plugin
Installation Failed
------------------------
Not sure why? I just manually upgraded, but thought you should know.
Does this work if I have a very old version fo wordpress to upgrade from, ie v2.0.3?
I heard that the way wordpress interfaces with the SQL database has changed, and thus will have a problem if I upgrade directly from the older version to the new version?
Thanks
Then with the 3rd one I ran into this (after clicking "Get the Latest Version from wordpress.org"):

Any ideas?

Help!
My site is still online and everything appears to be working fine, but I can't get in...
I'm having the same problem. It doesn't look like anyone responded to your question. Have you been able to log back in? If so, how did you do it?
Michael
your plugin work very well on the site i tested it, only one problem comes out after upgrading i have to restore file and folder permission to come out of a server 500 error, maybe plugin have to read file and folder permission before upgrading and set it as he found it.

Tried running the plugin, which seemed to work, until I completed it. It hasn't updated the site, and the main page is stuck in maintenance mode. Deleted index.php as instructed in the FAQ, and renamed index.php.wpau.bak file to index.php.
Now I get this:

Can anyone help? How do I restore the site?
First of all- Thanks for the plugin.
I installed version 1.2.1.
When i follow the step "Get the Latest Version from wordpress.org", I get this error: "Warning: set_time_limit(): Cannot set time limit in safe mode in wp-content/plugins/wordpress-automatic-upgrade/wpau_upgrade.class.php on line 54 In hereFinished Unzipping In here"
What to do?
Thanks,

Thanks again!
"Oops we cannot run the WordPress Automatic Update on your site. We are currently trying to fix issues for systems like yours and will release a new version shortly."
CentOS: 5.02 64 bit

WPAU: 1.2.1
Some clarification on the above output would be greatly appreciated. It's unclear to this writer exactly what problem WPAU is encountering.
It is one of the most useful and easy to use piece of software I have seen and am happily recommending it to friends who use WP.
I've had no problems when using this on two different blogs, thank you again for an excellent tool for every WP user.
Cheers

Why does the blog need to be in maintenance mode anyway? I'm the only author. If I'm upgrading, believe me I'm not creating new posts.
How about an option to skip maintenance mode and just perform the upgrade?

I really like your plugin. It has saved me much time.
There is one minor irritation: it never automatically upgrades itself. I cringe every time you have an update, because I know it will fail, then I will have to download, unzip, upload to my site, reactivate and check to see if everything is up to date.
Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

Please help!
Thanks
just click , click and finish!
any website with tje plugin add this to the link
www.urweb.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-auto...
u'll see
add this too ur url
www.urweb.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-auto.....
i noticed that because the stast in my web are growing up and people is going directly to that url.... i dont see any problem because everything looks secured and they dont have access to any information of the db, but u should check that problem.
I just updated the plugin to version 1.2.2, any ideas?
I've contacted my host with the "Fatal error: exec() [function.exec]:" error...
They've confiremd to me that my host has a protection which doesn't allow for this function to be executed.
So i guess no way for me to use wordpress automatic update. I've looked around and found wordpress instant update. Installed it and tried it... it works flawlessly. The only thing I had to do is set file and folder permissions manually.
What do I do?

http://wordpress.org/development/2008/09/wordpr...
I am working to get my WP 2.6.1 to 2.6.2 upgraded. Damn, this has been a troublesome upgrade! First, I used your plugin, it deactivated AskApache Password Protect and I can't get that one running anymore. The rest I did manually (other WP installations), but also there problems. Then when I was going through the server files with FTP, I saw that I DO have the wpau-backup folder (contrary to what I said on the WP forum). The worst thing is: no matter what I do, I can't delete or rename that folder. File permissions are read 3x, writing (owner and world!!) and execute all again. The only thing I could change were those permissions, so I simply deny everything, no reading, writing or executing for anyone.
Still, a strange thing and in the light of the previous exploitation discussion, still not a good sign, right?
How can I download full Backs up ? (ex : wp-content, themes,pictures...)

WordPress database error: [Table 'spedge2.wpau_upgrade_log' doesn't exist]
SELECT count(*) as counter from wpau_upgrade_log
Then I start the upgrade and I get this message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: current_user_can() in /raid/home/bucqui/spedge/spartanedge/blogs/spartanedge18/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-automatic-upgrade/wordpress-automatic-upgrade.php on line 860
ANY SUGGESTIONS? I've used your plugin on different blogs before and it's been very helpful. I would greatly appreciate not having to go about the upgrade some other more complicated way. Thanks!
Please Help!!!
Any idea?
Best regards, John J
This is da best plugin I've ever used! Just click the button and it's done!
does "WordPress Automatic Upgrade" work with all languages? For me: German? Or do I have an English version after upgrading with "WordPress Automatic Upgrade"?
Thanks for your support.

It went through the upgrade fine, and I am told to click on a link to complete the upgrade process, then the plugin will automatically update my plugins.
I click the link, and it tells me I have to login again. I enter my info, and it says the password is incorrect.
My blog is still online, but I cannot login to wp-admin anymore..
Can anyone please help??
TASK OUTPUT
Oops we cannot run the WordPress Automatic Update on your site. We are currently trying to fix issues for systems like yours and will release a new version shortly.
That's not exactly helpful. It would be a lot more helpful if the plugin could run its own logs so that the site operator can get some clue about what "issues for systems like yours" actually are, and report back with definitive data.
I have activated it on all my wordpress blog
The db backup step hung with a white screen. I attempted twice, then did my regular backup and skipped the step.
http://www.howtomakemyblog.com/how-to-set-up-a-...
With that said, 2.7 includes the Automatic Upgrade functionality in it's core, so this plugin will become unnecessary. It was very useful while I needed it, but like I said, I can't wait to see what you do next :-)
In trying to run WPAU from WP-2.60 -> 2.61 (mine is current version) I got this output;
“Oops we cannot run the WordPress Automatic Update on your site. We are currently trying to fix issues for systems like yours and will release a new version shortly.”
Some clarification on the above output would be greatly appreciated. It’s unclear to this writer exactly what problem WPAU is encountering.
Another question: does the plugin reinstall plugins with exactly the same settings? This is an important consideration as some pligin settings are lost with deactivation.
Thanks.
Thanks for your efforts. :D
I installed this plugin on my site few days back. Worked smoothly and i was able to upgrade wordpress.
However, since today, all of a sudden, it showed fatal errors. I was unable to view my site as well access my WP admin panel.
The error is this:
Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/sssmcom1/tmp) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/mobilemo/:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp) in /home/mobilemo/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-automatic-upgrade/wordpress-automatic-upgrade.php on line 119
Fatal error: session_start() [function.session-start]: Failed to initialize storage module: files (path: ) in /home/mobilemo/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-automatic-upgrade/wordpress-automatic-upgrade.php on line 119
I did not ever play with the codes of the plugin. To see that my data is still present, ultimately i had to delete the plugin using FTP (had no other choice).
But, now there is another problem, i still cannot view my site or access my dashboard since my theme also uses a session_start() function.
Pls, tell me what to do? My website is down due to this and this is certainly not good for it.
A reply and solution will be much appreciated.
Thanks
how about automatic rollback in case of an error? it ought to.
thanks
Cheers.

Any tips? Thanks!
Anybody have any success?
Yes it works fine with me :D
Moreover the Wordpress team probably added this plugin to the wordpress core, as now wordpress has this auto upgrade functionality that really look like this plugin...
So congrats to the author.

Curious if this works for going from 2.6.x to 2.7
Anybody have any success?
I have upgraded my site from 2.6.3 to 2.7 just now using this plugin. No problem at all :)
couple things:
1. thanks for this plugin. total lifesaver! been using it since forever.
2. just used it to upgrade a 2.3 to 2.7 - very smooth.
3. enabled gears/turbo on the site and it had one issue which I wonder if it is related ... it could not download /path/to/site/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/media/img/flv_player.swf
The resolution was that i had to download 2.7 from wp.org and ftp that file up myself., then it all worked. if this turns out not ot be related to your plugin, ignore.
4. your bbPress forum is in need of some repair ... we're seeing this at the top of the page:
[quote]
bbPress database error: [Table './bbpress/bb_usermeta' is marked as crashed and should be repaired]
SELECT * FROM bb_usermeta WHERE user_id = '3650' AND meta_key = 'bb_capabilities'

SELECT meta_key, meta_value FROM bb_usermeta WHERE user_id = '3650'
[/quote]
it's not so bad, except when the action requires a redirect and it can't.
ok, have a good one.
peace,
Jim
Could I get any feedback on the following that I got when I ran the automatic update pre-flight check?

I would like to provide a link for your plugin in my website. Is there a way for you to provide me with a ready code so that the link will be updated everytime a new version for your plugin is available?
Thanks.
Thanks for this awesome plugin! However, I've run into some problems due to the "Admin SSL" plugin, that encrypts the dashboard.
When I try to finish the updating process, WPAU can't find the correct final page, and the url becomes something like an indefinite redirect. If you know what I mean?
Can this be avoided?
Best regards,
PC

Thanks for developing this plugin. It really, really helps blogger like me. With your plugin, upgrade the wordpress version is a breeze.
However will you be upgrading your version to work with wordpress 2.7 and beyond?
I hope you will. Now is wordpress ver 2.71(just released)
I even wrote an article in my post on this plugin

Answer: Upgrades are built in starting with 2.7 and up. Tools->Upgrade.
Make sure you Create the /wp-content/upgrade directory (it was not present), set permissions to 777, then update the permissions in wp-content/plugins to 777 as well. Finally, I emptied /wp-content/cache - and plugins are now updating successfully.
Keith's plug-in worked sooooo well that I'm spoiled rotten by software that made upgrading almost enjoyable. Now, I'll be lucky to be upgrading at all since the alternative to the auto that doesn't work is to do it by hand. Yuck.
We should all pony up to paypal and beg Keith for an upgrade to handle future WP updates. Thanks, Keith.
The first is due to suhosin not liking that wordpress is trying to change the memory_limit. I am not sure if it is this plugin that caused the issue or if it is in wordpress itself but hopefully this will help you.

Count me as one vote to continue development of this awesome plugin.
I even made a Picture Tutorial on it the Last Time I used it. You can look at it @ WordPress Automatic Upgrade Tutorial
however, when i click on upgrade. it says:
'Congratulations!!! Your WordPress version is already up to date.'
this is version 2.5.1 !! why wont it let me use 2.7.? does this have anything to do with with my host? or my OS?
i am on a Mac using Safari. please help. thanks
Deactivated + activated all my plugins for me, cleaned up old wordpress files and all i did was click a few buttons. No more manual upgrading here!
Thanks again for the great plugin, will be donating towards your site
John Hobson
I also think this plugin is great, but... yesterday, two sites I updated lost their icons in the editor after updating, luckily we could restore this by re-installing the wpincludes directory.
The next thing that really worries me because I can't solve it: on another site I also wanted to do the automatic update, but I was asked for ftp information.
After I provided this, I had a huge problem: I can no longer reach the wp-admin part, it gives the message: Nothing found for Wp-admin Page Php
I really hope someone can help met out! I'm totally clueless off what to do now?
