and now I have to do it manually?
its not that incredibly hard to upload the files is it? in the 4 minutes I walked away and went to the restroom, I could have had my ftp client doing it, and it would be done by the time I finish typing this out.
May want to take a look at the video below and see if it helps.

If you still have problems, then you may want to try a manual upgrade…see the following:

Thank you whooami for flaming the noob, I appreciate it.
Anyways, figaro, those videos are very helpful, thanks. ^_^
@montu: You’re welcome…hope they help.
Montu,
I didnt write anything intending to flame you. On the contrary, my question above was serious, but I apologize if you misunderstood.
It’s OK, we’re all good. It seemed a bit snarky, but it’s possible I’m just in a bad mood because I don’t want to deal with this right now, so I was projecting. I apologize as well.
It’s been a while since I’ve done this, and I’m still really new to all this, so it’s a bit more difficult because I’m uncomfortable using the software.
Hey guys, i’ve been having a similar problem. Im on bluehost so it is supported accoding to the codex page. however for me it just stays stuck on the Downloading update from http://ww.wp.xz.cn/wordpress-2.8.2.zip and the file created in the wp-content folder is 0 bytes. i tried changing the permissions of the folder from 755 to 777. any body have an idea of what i am doing wrong?
