Any ideas on this? I earlier got an error on some update directory, and manually deleted it (unfortunately I didn’t write it down). I think I’ve done auto-upgrades on the same domain before.

Downloading update from http://wordpress.org/wordpress-3.1.3.zip…

Unpacking the update…

Warning: copy(/home/nwalters/public_html/wp-admin/includes/update-core.php) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/myname/public_html/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-direct.php on line 200

Could not copy files.

Installation Failed

sounds like you need to think about a new host… do I dare ask where you’re hosted now?
But yes that’s a permission issue.
