I've seen this sometimes, but as far as I can determine so far it's just curl/fopen being slow to return the data. I'll try some things and see if anything changes anything.

Although this problem seems to be better I am still getting it occassionally. I went to upgrade a client's site this afternoon and was told that 5.0.36 was up to date. 5 minutes later it allowed me to upgrade to 5.0.38

On one of my own sites I am being told that 5.0.37 is up to date. I suppose if I wait and try in 5 minutes or so it MIGHT allow me to upgrade.

Do you think it may be LiquidWeb's slow servers?

It happened for me a few times and I'm on futurehosting now. Though there's no regularity to it, the vast majority of the time it works.

Might be a curl problem. Google brings up

Though none of that is really helpful.

This problem is still going on and is maddening. I have been trying on and off all day to upgrade and it just can't do it!

I guess I've got to upgrade manually?

Well, you can change your Admin Overview template (templates/admin/main.tpl) to not wait for a new version to show the upgrade button. Change <OTHERWISE IF {NEEDSUPDATE}> to <OTHERWISE IF 1>

I finally narrowed this "not showing that there's an update ready" issue down to a curl bug -- curl just periodically times out, seemingly at random. Defaulting to fopen URL wrappers fixes it, as long as you have fopen url wrappers enabled on your server. Done for next version.
