Hi Steve5877,
I just ran into the exact same problem. I’ve got this Social Space plugin of mine. I just released v2.0 of that so wanted to check how the upgrade feature works. When I hit upgrade, it downloded the latest version but could not create directory for it.
I tried a few things and got this solution. I first Deactivate
d the previous version and then hit the upgrade. And it said Update successful
.
I’m not sure whether this is the correct solution, but it did work for me.
Hope this helps.
