auto upgrade failing

  • I tried to do the auto-upgrade for WP to 2.7.1 tonight and it failed with the following message:

    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare pclziputilpathreduction() (previously declared in /home/XXXXXX/public_html/wp/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-automatic-upgrade/lib/pclzip.lib.php:5421) in /home/XXXXX/public_html/wp/wp-admin/includes/class-pclzip.php on line 5498

    (where xxxx is the name of the area on my server where the pages are… I changed them for privacy.

    I never ran into this before and the last upgrade (auto) was fine. What is this and what’s the solution?

  • Remove the WordPress Automatic Upgrade Plugin. I’ve come across quite a few cases of it causing problems. It’s no longer needed with WP 2.7.

    ugh…means I have to do the upgrade manually waaahhh!!! ??

    thank you.

    NO. It certainly does not mean that.

    Upgrades are built-in to 2.7+ (that’s why esmi said it is no longer needed…)
