Because of this I've been updating manually on my main site. Problem is once you've done that (and this could be my server specific) you can't auto-update anymore. The plug-in sounds great, but since there are no guarantees its always recommended (as is in any manual WP installation) to backup the mysql database first. There's now a plug-in that does that as well. Sometimes Fantastico ain’t that up to date with regards to the version of WP you can auto-update to.

Just like Markku said, it's not that difficult especially if you have a good internet connection. You'll be done in a few minutes. Besides, I enjoy doing the upgrades! :D I prefer doing the upgrade myself. Just like Markku said, it’s not that difficult especially if you have a good internet connection.

But for most of us, it is a pain considering we typically have more than one WP install across our own little blog networks. ;) Upgrading per se isn’t really that hard, it’s just a matter of overwriting files through your favorite FTP client.

I just use CoreFTP to upload the files, it simply overwrites the old WP files except for the config file because it doesn't come with the upgrade archive. Weird thing is, Fantastico doesn't seem to detect that I've already updated my WP installations and it insists on making the upgrade through it.

I have accidentally deleted the config files on accident a few times myself when doing an upgrade. Good thing I had a backup. That would be good.
