 * Upload the WordPress files again. You must be missing `wp-includes/http.php` 
   and may be missing other ones as well.

 * I’m getting the same error … I’m actually getting 2 errors, then after i refresh
   through those, the site comes up. Then another refresh, and I get the errors 
   again.
 * Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_remote_post() in /home/www/mysite/
   wp-includes/cron.php on line 201
 * Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_remote_post() in /home/www/mysite/
   wp-includes/update.php on line 201
 * anyone help? I re-uploaded both files, then all files again and still nothing.
   Any help will save me, thank you!

 * It seems to work every other time I load the site, but not too sure why. Please
   help or post a solution if you’ve had this issue and resolved it, thanks!!!!

 * Got it figured out with the help of jford.
 * over on the wordpress 5 minute install page…. it tells you what files not to 
   delete/overwrite.. well i tried this and it didn’t work..
 * so i basically overwrote everything in there (making backups of my wp-content
   folder first) and once i had uploaded all the files for WP 2.7, then i uploaded
   plugins folder, activated them, i then i uploaded my theme.
 * works now 🙂 hope it works for the next person. Thanks again JFord

 * **RESOLVED by myself:** I forgot to upload the root directory of WP. So please
   feel free to ignore my ignorance. I got so swept up in backing up the right stuff
   that I lost track of my steps.
 * *******************
 * Fatal Error achieved:
 * `Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_remote_request() in [godaddy.com 
   hosting account]/html/wp-includes/update.php on line 58`
 * Occasionally, I also get the error in cron.php on line 201.
 * I did everything instructed:
 * 1. Delete wp-admin.
    2. Delete wp-includes. 3. Back up wp-content. 4. Delete 
   wp-content. 5. Upload wp-content. 6. Run upgrade. 7. Upgrade Database (WP’s upgrade
   system said I needed to, so I did).
 * That’s when I got the above fatal error.
 * I then tried to re-upload my plugins (all one of them) and themes (all one of
   them), and still achieved a fail.
 * Suggestions?
