omg - OMG!!! I got that fix to work! Thanks so much.

I tried it several times by copying and pasting the whole code, but it kept breaking down somewhere, in the end I just added the " -mu " to the url and viola! It worked!

Thanks dude Im gonna try this out now. I have been having this issue on several older installs and have been overwriting the core manually which is only slightly more time consuming, but anything that saves time saves money. :)

I'm having a few upload images / upgrade wpmu version problems.
The images upload and crunch just fine, no error messages at all, the image size etc looks ok, I can see the images in my ftp program - the images show as a broken link.
When I try to Auto Upgrade my version of wpmu I get an error message: Downloading update from http://mu.wordpress.org/wordpress-mu-2.8.4a.zip.

Unpacking the update.

Warning: copy(/home/allthing/public_html/wp-content/upgrade/wordpress-mu-2.8.4a/wordpress/wp-admin/includes/update-core.php) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/allthing/public_html/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-direct.php on line 131
Could not copy files.
Installation Failed

I know this a little off topic, but I spent the day searching for answers in forums, google etc etc and cant find any solutions.

Any ideas??

Stef

Well it depends, if it's for an upgrade they shouldn't mind too much, if you need it all the time, you might be needing a VPS, or some decent speed up work on your WordPress. I don't know too many installs that really need 64 MB of ram...

Errr no, no-one mentioned that part in the fixes I found.
Right then - I know what to do next time it goes tits up - cheers!

Someone did say my web-host might not be pleased about me editing these settings - you think there is any truth in that?

did you increase your WP_MEMORY_LIMIT in your wp-config as well?

I keep having an auto upgrade issue with my standard wordpress installs where there is fatal memory error.
The fix is to increase 32m to 64m in the php.ini but for some reason it is rewritten as 32m after a while.
I still have the old auto uprade plugin installed for when this happens though as the memory fix hasnt worked a couple of times. So rather than uninstalling that old plugin I will be keeping it as a backup!
