Description
I upgraded to WordPress 4.4.3 using the SSH SFTP Updater plugin. The upgrade seems to have worked but at then end I received a blank page and some errors appeared in the log:

I unpacked the zip file and did a diff on the two folders.
The only thing that sticks out is that the twentysixteen theme wasn't installed, but I can do that manually. Everything else is the same as what's in the zip file.
Wordpress seems to be working fine, the errors only appeared during the upgrade.

- Milestone Awaiting Review deleted
- Resolution set to invalid
- Status changed from new to closed
Unfortunately I have to mark this as invalid
as this scenario is caused by an incomplete upgrade which we either couldn't finish, or were interrupted in the upgrade process.
Additionally, during the upgrade the website may also fatal, which appears to be the original report here, as WordPress is in a state where it's not 100% complete.
Very odd.

Have you tried manually updating WordPress to see if that fixes the issue?
