I seem to have that problem on a few of our sites... and I hate the manual upgrade path. Also - good notes on keeping your site updated - it's very important. A couple of our sites got hacked and we were able to restore our backups (we use WP Backup Plugin from CloudBacks) very fast and then run the upgrade for protection. Luckily we had these backups running automatically every day! Good explanation of upgrading WP, but what do you do when the auto upgrade doesn’t work?
