Hi @ipajen, Welcome to Trac!

It seems like your server experienced a timeout when trying to upgrade. This request is better suited for the ​WordPress.org support forums, as this is not a bug in WordPress itself.

​This forum post has all the information you need to fix this issue, and some other information specific to the 5.8 update.

@desrosj thanks, hostning increased the Maximum Execution time and it worked to update, but When this error accourd it still dident send out a email about critical error, (When i make another critical error from a bad plugin it send out the enail) so i still believe There is a bug about email is not sent out When ciritical error in the update process.

It's likely that you did not receive the email because there was an incomplete update. Please read through the post linked above and find the section about manually upgrading.

If you need more assistance, please open a support forums ticket.

@desrosj The update issue it self is solved. But my bug report is about The text "Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions." should not be printed if code cant handle the exception and send the e-mail? Best would be that e-mail would be sent out as excepted from the printed message. So the bug still is there. Thank you.
