Hello, According to my Win server you have to change the permissions on the folder (and all files in that folder), where you have WP installed, otherwise the automatic update will fail. You have to give the web user the rights to modify and write. Once the update is done, you can change it back.
For me, if I don't change the permissions this automatic update fails every time. So I learn the hard way that changing the permissions is the way to do it. OK, I user IIS 6 but there should not be any difference I think. Regards, Martin 2010/4/5 Michael K. Spears <[email protected]> > On Mon, 05 Apr 2010 10:33:45 -0400, "Michael K.
