Hi all,

Quick update: Upping the PHP memory limit to 64mb wasn't necessary. I auto-upgraded another one of my 2.7.1 sites to 2.8 (uses all the same plugins | PHP memory limit = 32mb) and everything worked fine while my first site's still down with a 500 error. This makes absolutely no sense at all. Auto-upgrading, even with the old "wp auto-upgrade plugin" always worked flawlessly. My error logs are even clear so I have nowhere to start troubleshooting the problem.

I'll try an old fashioned manual upgrade to 2.8 on the site that's currently down. I prefer not have it out of circualtion more than a day or so.

Okay, so I upped the limit to 64mb which seemed to solve the
"stuck" upgrade process. The upgrade took place normally and
announced that all was successful then promptly gave me a 500
error when I tried navigating to the Dashboard. Now the entire
site is down.

I have a "php.ini" file with the php memory limit set to 64mb
in the root directory, wp-admin and wp-includes directory. I
should believe that's the proper locations but if there's
another please let me know.

First time this has ever happened and it seems a bit strange
that 2.8 should require more than 32mb php memory for an auto
upgrade since it's not the most involved upgrade that
WordPress has ever had. Looks like it's all manual from now on.

Getting a lot of reports of this at the Swedish portal, most of the
times the php memory limit is set to low at the server (the process
seems to need a bit more than 32mb of free memory).

Is anyone else having a problem with the WP auto upgrade stopping at
"Downloading update from http://wordpress.org/wordpress-2.8.zip";?

I don't have any problem updating manually but I always like to check
out the auto upgrade function to any new version. I've never
encountered a problem before but this time it stops at the above
notification with the browser reporting it's "Done" loading the page
(where it only reports "Done" once the upgrade is complete). Nothing
is downloaded and nothing is in the "Upgrade" directory online.

Possible server problem? It's also possible that I'm running the
latest version of Firefox on Ubuntu 9.0.4 but I doubt it.
