Description

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare wp_update_core() (previously declared in /srv/disk4/1460902/www/arctraining.atspace.co.uk/wp-admin/includes/update.php:288) in /srv/disk4/1460902/www/arctraining.atspace.co.uk/wp-admin/includes/deprecated.php on line 1077

Please help me get back into my site. After trying to download the newest version of word press I keep getting the above error everytime I try to edit or log in.
I only went to upgrade to add the Google Anayltics widget to the site as could not find a way to upload the "web master tools document"

You have an outdated wp-admin/includes/update.php file.

wp_update_core() was moved from that file to wp-admin/includes/deprecated.php in 3.7:
tags/3.9.1/src/wp-admin/includes/deprecated.php#L1057​.
