    Just upgraded to 3.0.1. Got a license key and inserted that in Settings. Now when I click update, and many errors/warngings, and the update fails:

    ( ! ) Warning: ftp_nlist() expects parameter 1 to be resource, null given in /etc/apache2/dbs/Sites/ker/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-ftpext.php on line 402

    More info …

    The error occurred on a staging server before pushing to production. Running it on the production server worked fine. So I think we are good here. Maybe a missing php library? Thx.

    WP Filesystem tries to set up the access via FTP and fails … because I didn’t implement this, sorry ?? This happens when the Apache/PHP user is different to the owner who can write to /uploads (or maybe the whole wordpress) … so he’s falling back from direct acess to FTP. On my dev instances, I always had to choose direct access manually by setting a define in wp-config.php
