[wp-testers] Re: wp-testers upgrade automatically issue?

Fri Nov 21 17:18:52 GMT 2008

 Unfortunately, many people still use web hosts on PHP4. Including the
school where I teach blogging and I haven't been able to get an automatic
upgrade to work their since early October! :-(  It used to work before the
beta versions but since we are on beta no more automatic upgrade on that
server. I keep trying and it keeps failing.
