 * Hi Everyone,
 * I have created a clone of the WordPress of my company in order to have a local
   website for testing the new updates of WordPress and plugin.
 * Unfortunately for some reason I cannot use the interface to update because I 
   received this message each time I try : _ERROR: There was an error connecting
   to the server, Please verify the settings are correct._
 * As I was not able to fix this issue I tried to update is manually by following
   the instruction on this website : [https://wordpress.org/support/article/upgrading-wordpress-extended-instructions/](https://wordpress.org/support/article/upgrading-wordpress-extended-instructions/)
 * However after I delete the old files and push with FileZilla the new files of
   the 5.6 version into the WordPress folder, I go back to the WordPress interface
   but nothing happen and WordPress still ask me to update WordPress to the version
   5.6.
 * If you have any idea of the issue please share it with me.
 * Thank you for yours help and time.
 * Best Regards,

 * 建议您观察根目录下 wp-config.php文件
    里面可能会有一些常量设置 类似下面 define(‘
   WP_HTTP_BLOCK_EXTERNAL’, true);
 * 开发者会利用这些常量去屏蔽更新或网络连接等
    你可以检查下 或许可以解决你的问题.

 * Hi Feile,
 * Thank you very much for your help unfortunately there is nothing like that in
   the WP-config.php file, there is only wp-debug, false but I don’t think it’s 
   the issue.
 * Best Regards,
