/404.php removed

/CONTRIBUTING.md removed

/CONTRIBUTORS.md removed

/README.md removed

/address.php removed

error when trying to upgrade /admin../ajax-tab.php

/admin../ajax-tab.php not removed

 

then it fails out

 

Any ideas? Is this a permissions issue? as it crashes as soon as it tries to do anything

I have the same problem but 1.5.4.1 to 1.5.5.0

 

Whats wrong?

 

Thanx!

Make sure the permission for these folders and files are above 700. I had this same problem with a different folder. Changed all permissions to 777 and update went smooth. Probably a good idea to go back and change them back to the original permissions after the update.

It is either permissions as mentioned above or if you are using Linux check ownership of the files.

 

Mine changed during a backup from apache to root - took me ages to do a side-by-side comparison of a basic install and my live version to find them all (not sure why Linux does this sometimes but it's bloody annoying when it happens)

 

In a terminal window use ls -l -a /var/www/html/mywebsitename

hmm  1.6.0.8 -->  1.6.0.9  

I would actually expect the software to check permissions before it started the upgrade.

But thanks for the tips..
