Update to 4.2.2 not working

    Clicked the “update now” button, put in the FTP details, started update – screen went blank.
    Usually, when I do updates on other sites I see a message at bottom left of screen advising “waiting for ..” but not in this case.
    Suggestions please – do I need to do a manual update, and if so, how?

    try MANUAL updating. Download a fresh copy of the WordPress .zip file to your computer, unzip it, and use that to copy up all files and folders EXCEPT the wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory. You may need to delete the old copies of files & folder on your server before uploading the new ones. Read the Manual Update directions first.
    – If you haven’t already done, always backup everything (including your database) before doing any actions.

    Thanks Tara, you are right. I had started the process of backup before your post arrived.
    I now have a 4.2.2 site.
    Appreciate your care
